Poem

They looked forward to spend the weekend
 in this haunted aged castle
 Who believes in haunted stories?

 It was evening when they arrived
 the table was set for twelve guests
 even if there were only four of them
 The food was served in silence by the host
 They just wanted to enjoy the meal and
 jump to bed early

 Suddenly the one empty chair moves
 pushed half a meter backwards with one
 scraper sound
 The sound reaches right into the spinal cord
 Everyone agreed it was scary
 But who believes in haunted stories?

 They understood that it was
 several guests at the table than invited
 Perhaps residents from earlier eras
 After the meal they sat in silence and listened
 Low muttering and the sound of knife against porcelain
 and glasses that clinked
 Where reality is no longer sufficient
 and the imagination is given free rein

 Neither the dog nor the guest found peace at night
 whose slumbers their eyelids were wide open
 The experience of what was real and true
 that night no one can confirm
 They tried to ignore it at first
 but could feel someone breathing down their necks

 Doors that were locked from the inside were opened
 by invisible hands
 The floor creaked and there was a cold grave breath in the room
 The weekend was cut short after this one night
 Hey, who believes in haunted stories?
 Their memories are now tattooed and haunted
 Incomprehensible to people who have never experienced this
