Killer Within

When I don the mask I feel I’m superior,

The look of fear in their faces is what drives me,

Keeps me alive inside.

I hide in the shadows, lurk and wait.

And when the time has come,

My face pops out just for them to see the blackness of my eyes,

The mask I put on.

Then as my blade glimmers in the moonlight,

I step out from the darkness and pursue my victim.

That look of fear is what drives me,

Ignites me, and gives me energy to kill.

The feeling,

The rush I get when I penetrate my blade into their body.

Those looks in their eyes,

The hopelessness they have.

I am ruthless,

I am dark,

Evil,

I have no soul,

No heart,

And my mask is the last thing you will see.

A killer within.
