Ghoulish displays.
Pagan ways.
Societal exceptance
Of a darker beat.
Candy treats!
My heart's complete.
Adored departed
walk among us
this single
hallowed eve.
We shall leave
a candle
burning.
Spooky blood moon
fiery pumpkins scowl
fevered footprints
haunted house
bewitching hour
silhouette of Halloween.
The one night each year that I'm allowed to be an unbridled, wretched little witch.
Drizzling skies
Candied corpses
Rotting leaves
Crunching apples
Bloodied bones
Howling winds
Shining pumpkin eyes
Darkness envelopes my soul as demons come and play, even Christians look the other way.
Nobody suspects my bloodied blade isn't store-bought,
That the true monster lurks beneath the mask.
The dark nights are longer and there’s something really sinister and mysterious in the air.
A masquerade,
Many faces,
Creatures dark and beautiful,
Anything is possible,
For just one night.
People's judgements turn to compliments
When the weirdos reign supreme
For darkness can be comforting
