Poem: A Killer in the Dark

He will do what needs to be done

Alone and with a soul dark as the coldest night
Slowly he walks through alighted streets
With a great sorrow lingering behind like a shadow
For those he has hurt and taken from this world
It keeps him in the grip of reality
He is alone, but strong
And does not give up
Not without a fight
With the finger on the trigger
He walks into the line of fire
