Haunted Houses

Haunted houses loom on every corner from the hood to the burbs Causing uproar among those who wish to live peacefully Interrupting the lives on the path of the straight and narrow Filling them with sadness and despair Dark rooms breed secrets in the shadows, closets full of skeletons Entire houses are infested with demons lurking in the halls Phantoms chase out innocence in broad daylight Void of all morals, humility and faith Lacking compassion drenched in evil deeds Houses built of foundations of deceit wobble and shake Until they collapse into dusty heaps Once beautiful homes are now rundown shacks Though some may still stand They all have fallen from grace
