Howl

An old man guards a golden door,
he hears a tap and thinks he is done for.
He screams; Who is there!?
While saying a prayer.

Another tap, panic resides..
The old one wishes he will survive.
He screams again; Who is there!?
And gets caught with the feeling of despair.

A third tap, but with a bang,
Something came trough, its a silver fang.
He screams once more; Please, please!
But he knew there were no guarantees.

And the old man heard a monstrous growl,
it was followed by a chilling howl..
The old man looked up into the skies,
said a few words and closed his eyes.

This old man, is he the same as in your other stories? I always find him interesting and am left wondering, wanting to know more about him. Keep up the good work, Hyperia!
