Haunted

Creaking doors in the attic
Crying like ocean waves
Wind singing through the canopy
As the piano starts to play.

Evil voice moaning lullabies
Heavy footsteps are in sight
Bloody-red eyes in the dark shades
How haunted this world is.

Distorted voice in the closet
Throbbing heartbeat beneath my bed
Scratching sounds of insect's nails
Knocking down the window pane.

Breathy swishes in the breeze
Witchy cackle overhead
Screaming out through deadly nightmares
Escaping this mysterious spell.
