The Eyes of a Demon

Eyes of a Demon
                                           

As the young woman walked home late one evening
Little did she know, one gazed upon her with the eyes of a demon
Earily silent except for the sound of her high heels
Demon eyes watching, wondering how ravishing her body would feel       

His evil thoughts full of lust
His sinful mouth salivating as under his breath he cussed
When she reaches this corner, her body I'll grab
If she attempts to scream, a knife in her chest I will stab

The closer she got, the faster his heart beat
His body trembling with excitement, anticipating this meet
Closer, closer, closer still
Rape, torture, then kill

The eyes of the demon gazed
The evil intentions of his mind, his conscience did not faze
Then the moment arrived
Two souls collide

Violently he muffled her scream
At first she thought this must be a dream
Then seeing in his hand a large knife
She knew she must fight to save her life

A loud bang, a bright flash in the dark
Through the shadows, she could see she hit her mark
She stood over his prone body as his life drifted away
The demon gaze in his eyes will no longer stay
Faded, gone, in the dirt where his dead body lay      

There will come a day when this evil tale of lore
All demon eyes will be destroyed and exist no more
For now, let's be warned my friend
Beware of the demon eyes gazing, lusting for your life to end
