Favorite Quote:
“And in that moment, I swear we were infinite.”

― Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower


He takes people’s lives with the snap of a finger
His eyes glowing red, burning with blood
After he kills, his scent always lingers
With the dead bodies falling with a thud

Everyone fears him in the town
Too scared to go out at night
The people always have a frown
Scared that he will give them a fright

He has to be stopped, people state
Five more deaths in one day
Police found the bodies in a crate
Our lives are in danger, people fearfully state

He can never be caught, he’s too quick
Everyone is running for their lives
He raises a skinny finger, thin as a stick
And everyone suddenly dies
