The night felt eerie
the moon was full
his girlfriend said
she was going to
pay him a visit
he knew that meant
she wouldn’t be
her usual sweet self
he knew that hell
was coming
instead of knocking
she howled at the
front door
instead of a woman
she’d become
a werewolf
as she did every
full moon night
he howled back
a werewolf as well
though reluctantly
he enjoyed the kills
but upon waking
he felt regrets
when his girlfriend
entered his home
he shot her dead
with a silver bullet
then he shot himself
to death as well.
