Terrence's Lake

shadeshift

night stays silent when Terrence is around

no creatures make a noise

nothing will disturb the lake

and Terrence stays asleep

 

God gave Terrence the lake

and he is happy

Father let the moon stay with him forever

no one will ever bother Terrence

 

but greed and envy is what a human has

and fear has nothing on him

the human wants Terrence's Lake by his own

he craves it for his own greed

 

the human burned Terrence

he cried in agony

human doesn't care

Terrence is crying

 

...and angry

 

as the human said that he claimed the lake

he celebrated too soon

the human turned around

the human frozed in his place

 

Terrence's sanctuary is disturbed

and Terrence step out of the dim moonlight

he is out from his web

ready to punish his prey

 

 

 

 

 

 

the human...

is now the one who is screaming
