He bought his way in with a casual charm
we were mistaken when we thought he could do no harm
He watched them all with a villainous smirk
And waited some time before going to work
Yes, he waited some months till his plans were all set
Later, he whispered,
"child didn't you fret,"
And as the boy slept, he let out a chuckle and a grin
He said, "this won't hurt, no, not one little bit"
And so with an almost gentle care
He brushed the back the boy's raven black hair
Then he slipped the boy a very toxic mix
And some morphine as a way to fix
The inevitable pain the potion will bring
And whispered a lullaby his mother used to sing
Next was the girl,
Wrapped in a blanket that mimicked fur
He didn't care for her one way or another
But he didn't wish to harm her,
she who looked so much like her mother
So he quickly poisoned her
And sought a way to lure
And steal his love away
At the break of day
All to mock his rival
And to leave him scrambling for survival
Friends to enemies, it took a bitter turn
And even though his friend did yearn
To fix the wrongs done to them both
This naive friend should lose all hope
As of all his riches he is slowly drained
As red eyed demons demand to be repaid
For the suffering he endured
And finally he felt avenged
As spirit broken and body bent
Jack crawled to him upon his knees
And begged "Vladdie please,"
"My family's been stolen away,
By cruel vicious fate"
"No you fool!" Vlad roared with hate
"This is not a work of fate,
But of my sinner hands,
All along it was my plan,
For you to crawl to on your hands"
As light dawned in Jack's blue eyes
Vladdie whispered his goodbye
With a dagger, silver and sharp
Vladdie tore out Jack's heart
And now for Vlad the battle's won
And this horrid tale is done
A family torn apart
To heal scars 'pon another's heart
