Is That You?

There he was
hidden by the shadows of the night
watching me,
watching me like a hawk with his coal
black eyes.
And my poor, sweet Allen
lying dead at his feet.
I tried to scream but nothing came out
so I stood there watching him, gazing into his eyes
I wonder how one could be so evil
so cruel.
Those eyes...so familiar.
Had those eyes once looked into mine?
Had those eyes once been kind and caring?
Had those arms that had crushed my heart
once held me so close?
That is when I could finally speak and all I said was
Is that you?
