All Hallows eve

The damp twilight devours our world
The living
rush to the protection of their homes
fleeing from the dark.

Darkness cloaks the fading sun.
The brave
still linger
strong and devoid of fear.

Silence falls over the streets
The weak
cower in fear
alone and trembling in their homes.

Terror echoes from the crypt.
The dead
have risen once again
angry and lusting for vengance.

A battle rages through our town
The strong
triumph over their foes
alive,

but know another battle awaits them next year.
