The sky was black
The wind very wild
The trees were blowing
Screaming like a child

Red eyes could be seen
Through the glimmer of night
No shadows were present
For there was no light

I saw something moving
My hands began to shake
My body was completely frozen
I yelled " For Heaven's Sake!!"

I wanted so badly to run
But my feet where planted on the ground
I wanted so badly to just scream
But I only made a whimpering sound

The wind became so loud
The leaves were blowing around
I lowered my head with a tear in my eye
As I just looked at the ground

I just knew I was doomed
No more life for me to live
So much love within my heart
Yet no time left to give

What did I do to deserve this?
To make him take me away
To take away all my hopes and dreams
To end my life on this day

I felt someone tap my shoulder
My heart skipped a beat
I just knew this was the end
As I began to weep

So I turned around and....
As shocked as I could be
There stood a small child
Yelling.... "HAPPY HALLOWEEN!"  

I know an early Halloween poem...
Peace

great poem

you could have erased the last two paras and its a really dark and desolate piece whic says alot.

it still does, but the ending was unexpected, and fun.

dark but cheery.
