Darkness Came

Darkness Came Darkness came creeping into my head As I was softly lying in bed Eyes were closed, breath sweetly falling When I got the strange feeling, my past would come calling Nervous I was, but unable to awaken, I felt my small form being forcefully taken I saw myself floating above a crowded room A party loudly chattering and then, a deafening Boom Glass shattered, then terrified screams from around That's when I saw His lifeless body hitting the ground. As I watched the corpse fall, it took only a moment For it to rise & turn towards me, as I lay, frozen Blood trickled down it's face and dripped onto the floor The curly hair, where a bullet-wound gaped, was No more. The ghastly fright that was once my Lover Now a Horror-film creature that could haunt One Forever. The phantom turned towards me, but not in sorrow I felt my fear melt, as the voice was not hollow, “It's OK,” it said in a comforting tone, “it didn't hurt...” I was now shook to the Bone. I could only stare as the ghost seemed to smile I awoke in my bed & sat for a while I wondered if this vision was truly a dream Or a visit or tale from an other-wordly Being.
