Fright Night

In a dark dark room I gaze out my window, Watching as the fog engulfs the night In the distance I notice a crow staring back, I can’t close my eyes try as I might It’s as if I lost control of my body, The piercing stare of the crow makes me cringe A feeling of fear overwhelms me, A figure appears beyond the forest’s fringe The hairs on my back stand up, My heart is racing at lighting speeds A soft breath kisses my neck, Yes someone is in my room indeed I can’t turn around for I’m paralyzed with fright, Is this a cruel joke or my demise Then an ear shattering laugh fills my room, I don’t even get to say my goodbyes And just as all hope is lost something happens, I wake up in bed covered in sweat Could it have just been a dream, If so what could it have possibly meant Then I peer out my window, The outside is lit up from the light of the moon I don’t understand how all this went down, Even if was just in my dark dark room
