Witches Door

The sweet relief of summer's heat dissipates

The closer to the heat of hell's night

As the month of the witching falls upon us

Entering it means preparing for a fright

Will you walk into this with an open eye

Or hide behind the exit from September

Will you open the door to the hells that abound

Anxious about the terrors of years past you remember

Not all about the month is for the weaker of heart

As the doors creak open to release the horrors upon you

One step at a time into the house of the setting sun

And face all those things coming to take a soul or two

Lest ye forget the bright wonders and flavors to be found

Nights around the fire, enjoying being out under the stars

Kids' excitement and innocence reminding you of simpler moments

And terrors of the demented hiding in the backseats of cars

Enter the month carefully, dear friends and ghosts of beyond

And prepare for all the wonders of the darkness to behold

Mask up to scare away the demons until they begone

And ready for the door to what's next, for it brings the cold
