A flash of lights Just a blink in the night The glint in her eyes Just a blink A singular shriek Then a young doe dies The grieving mother lets go a cry As the doe rolls upon her hood to die Lit by the dashboard lights Looking in from the hood Just a streak of blood Devoid of life, lost the fight The eyes, human, stare at her The ice cold air makes her shiver As she opens the door to make sure Checks for a pulse For a moment her heart stalls At the death of something so pure A runaway no doubt No time to even shout Her heart ties in a knot She killed her just out of the womb At thirteen she now goes to a tomb In the blinding light she was caught No one would ever know her name Gone too early to play the game Life cut short Nowhere else to go The mother takes in her arms her doe
