Candlelit Eyes
October 25, 2010
My mouth is frozen
In a wicked smile
My eyes are carved
In an eerie glint
And down the street
Are flickering lights
Who's faces I see
Are similar to mine
Screams of horror
Pierce the air
Cackling laughter
Haunts the ears
And around the corner
Are ghouls and monsters
Who seem to age
A year a day
Nothing seems
To ever change
Because in a day of mine
Autumn never leaves
And from where I sit
I observe
These Halloween traditions
Through my candlelit eyes
My mouth is frozen
My eyes are carved
The Jack-o-Lantern's eyes flicker
It's Halloween again.
