Eerie
A lonely road, it was dark, Close by there were trees, and a park,
Home was close,yet surprisingly far, there was no fuel in my car
There was a building coloured white, and everywhere around it, it was quite,
There were dogs barking at a distance, proud and threatening in announcing their existence,
It was past 10 at night, the eeriness made my soul shiver in fright,
And suddenly, there was a shudder in the bushes nearby, and a terrific thundering in the sky,
I waited in anticipation, waiting for a beast to come for my distruction,
It all went silent for what felt like eternity, an uncomfortable calm disturbing my sanity,
Suddenly out came a rushing pig, and a dozen piglets, from behind the ridge,
What was I to think? Me, who's heart did majorly shrink?
I looked up, my eyes landed on the building with the ghostly ghastly shadows of the trees surrounding,
The wind moved the trees, with it the shadows did dance, and suddenly took a deadly cold stance
I felt like I was a survivor of the devilish night, when I heard the nearing roar of a triumphing bike
