Night Scare

Just as I dozed Off It was that creature Again! Shook me awake By the echoing, Growling of its fierce voice Onto my feet, I was Rocketed towards that edifice I dashed in, locked all the portals Giving access to the building I took a deep breath Thinking I had escaped it I down-lifted myself To the rooms downstairs Trod backwards, I got inside room 16 And locked myself up, Felt relieved for a second The room was then illuminated By the red-searching lasers I tried to view them closer, I was pierced by two-edged Sword-like objects, I heard the voice... 'Again?' A coffin was deposited in front I was desperate, I got inside myself I heard an alarm ringing A wavy view of the ceiling, And shower came to sight I was in the tub Warmth of water had taken me To a place no one else knows The sun had risen, It was morning And it was time to leave for school
