He watches her..
Everyday..
Following her to school
Studying her routine..
Staying far enough away
not to be seen..
He watches through her
window at night..
As she sleeps..
In her litlle pink bed
tucked in tight..
She know not
of this predator..
Who lurks in shadows
out of sight ..
She know not of the threat
to her young life..
He sweats as he watches..
Dreams of when
she will belong to him..
Dreams of all he will do..
Hands shaking in anticipation..
To see the look on her face..
To know she will die
in his embrace..
He followed her one day..
When into the woods
she went to play..
She sensed him in
the breeze somehow..
She ran as fast as her
little legs would go..
She ran so fast
she didn't see..
The cliff that loomed
behind the trees..
He chased her through
the woods with fury..
She screamed as she fell
Landing on jagged rock..
Her predator..
Blind with want
also jumped
through the trees..
His chosen prey..
Now a mere five feet away..
He watched her take
her final breath..
He smiled
One last victim
before his death.
