The Howling Nights
My life changed forever on a specific day
It was a beautiful morning in the mid of May
My lonesome life was to go on for long
Until I realized that I was wrong
The moving trucks ensconcing in the neighborhood
My glamorous smile hoping things would be the greater good
A figure steps out of the truck in a flash
He looked considerable, charming and as craving as cash
I went up to him and introduced me to him
I said “My name is Sarah" and his name is “Dim"
Dim had a personality that attracted me to him
It was sometimes too cute, and sometimes too grim
His smile was as shiny as the perfect glass
It was too resisting for me to pass
Dim had the face of a million Angels
He was sharp and cleanse from every angle
During the day, I would invite him over
Until dusk would hit, then the fun would be over
He would sprint out of the house with so much stamina
Then ran to his house, on the street of “Damina"
I felt a connection between the two of us
A connection that wasn’t going under the bus
The day was the best moments of them all
But the night was a terrifying and mysterious call
Howls would occur, they’d jolt me out of my sleep
They were sharp as a nail that would make me weep
I’d lay in my bed not knowing what to do
While being concerned for Dan, in case he heard them too
Everyday was the same routine, nothing more, nothing less
Although, I’ve noticed Dan's attitude change to nearly a hot mess
He would eat like an animal, as if he was a dog
The him I wanted was disappearing into the fog
He would hit and curse at me, this made me lose fate
But he would make up for his actions by taking me on a date
We would stroll at the mall like the best soul mates around
But there’s was still something about him that remained to be unfound
He would then take me to a movie before sunset
Then dusk would hit, and our end of the day met
He drove me through the city to take me home
We knew wherever we went, we will always roam
Then he acted strange while driving the car
But it was a different strange, something very bizzare
He kept saying “I can’t be with you anymore, I have to leave you"
These words left me heartbroken and confused on what to do
I could feel the change in him that was beginning to trigger
But it wasn’t human change, it was something way bigger
He dropped me off and I exited the car
This day to me was a giant battle scar
His last words were “I love you, Sarah, but, please understand we can’t be together”
Those words were a game changer, that went off forever
The car drove off and I ran inside
Crying my eyes out, it felt like I just died
Back to my lonesome life I went
I just hoped that Dan would soon repent
His actions and behavior were so out of his character
I then felt like the two of us just needed a large barrier
The howls came back at night, I couldn’t believe my ears
They were getting worse and worse and sent me back to tears
Then a knock came at the door, I jolted in surprise
I felt a sense of dread that something was about to rise
I slowly walked downstairs as the knocking grew
The sounds were devastating as a broken screw
I approached the door unaware of the fright
The fright that would be my first and final tonight
As I opened the door, a large figure stood there
A canine like creature with an absurd amount of hair
It had the appearance of a wolf, but the body of a human
But, the terror I was facing was definitely nonhuman
I stood in horror and silence as I stared at its red eyes
It reacted in such violence and pounced on me in such surprise
It grabbed ahold of my neck and jolted me around
No one was able to hear my devastating and painful sound
It mauled my face then mauled my chest
It took out my organs, then ate the rest
I laid there helpless, while it feasted away
Not getting to witness the very next day
It was morning and Dan found himself in my house
He realized everything was as quiet as a mouse
He noticed wolf hair left on the ground
He feared for the worst, hoping something horrific wouldn’t be found
He encountered my remains, with pools of blood everywhere
He stood with tears and all he could do was stare
He laid on the floor and began to cry
All he could think of is he wanted to die
“I’m sorry, Sarah, I’m really sorry” He cried
As he laid there and felt like his heart fried
He walked home crying thinking about our fun
But it was too late for us, for the damage had already been done
He arrived home and went to his room
Where he was about to face his fatal doom
He opened his drawer and takes out his gun
He points it at his head as he faces the sun
His hope was compared to being stabbed by a knife
“I don’t deserve this cruel life"
He pulls the trigger and drops to the floor
From there, nothing was the same anymore
Our bodies were eventually found and taken away
And taken to a cemetery, where we laid to stay
Our graves were next to each other as we rested in peace
They were both put up by my mother and niece
Our loved ones missed us, but they were unaware of the frights
That occurred and rose on those terrible howling nights.
