SNOWY BLOOD
by SHERROD
The sun was gone and the snow was starting to fall
Letting the cold air take over and blow everything away
The snow started off white and turned red
A nightmare came onto the town
I remember in the movie everything changed
The screen dimmed down and the music faded
A guy came down and he was looking enraged
A killer looking for revenge
He spots an innocent little boy and goes for the kill
A squeal follows through the town like a dolphin’s squeak
But, this wasn’t for a location, this was for help
A knife pieced through a black shirt to the chest of a young child
Passing through the heart and out the back
His body plops down in a blanket of roses and covers the snow with blood
Hours pass and no one comes to the rescue
Flies fly around the body for the sweet taste of the flowing plasma
Days fly by and someone finds him
The funeral goes on and everyone sighs in regret
Regret that they couldn’t do anything sooner
The screen brightens up as the funeral continues
The piano plays while the day goes on
Of a sad song that everyone knows
Saying sorry goes around in the hall and tears of the family fall
The boy is gone and the world goes on
But there is a good thing from this story
The killer will always be gone
