What was that noise

Off in the dark?

Something that's poised

Waiting to spring

And rend her flesh,

She is the victim.

Her cheeks are wet

They taste of salt

Her innocence

Won't go unharmed

Only fifteen, there's no escaping her plight.

She runs painlessly, trapped in the night

Fleeing from monsters and murderous wights.

The trees around her are

Malevolent beings, fiends who'll hunt her down.

The ground is painted red with her blood.

He runs alone

With nothing there

To help, to guide him.

The stars are lost

Amongst the clouds,

Their light won't find him.

Oh how he cries,

Tears in his eyes.

His innocence

Will come to harm.

Only thirteen, there's no escaping, no flight.

He runs painlessly, trapped in the night

Fleeing from monsters and murderous wights.

The trees around her are

Malevolent beings, fiends who'll hunt her down.

The ground is painted red with his blood.
