Alone In the Dark

It's so hard to be brave sitting alone in the dark when every little sound can give you a start ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Then something moves and you know not why in your own mind you're sure you're going to die ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Is it a ghost or a demon or some other imp of hell or just your imagination sometimes it's so hard to tell ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Goosebumps run wild and your heart starts to race you are too scared to run the terror shows on your face ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ You hear it draw nearer then the scratching of claws you sit shaking in the dark awaiting that tooth filled maw ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ You squeal like a little sissy girl when you hear a hiss and a spat and the evil for which you wet yourself was only that darn cat ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ mkt 2017
