On Halloween Night
Coming...
It's near.
But where?
You can't seem to find it.
On Halloween night.
You continue
Into your home
And lock the door
Out of suspicions
Thinking you are safe.
Walking down
A dark corridor
You seem to hear
A breath behind.
But no one's there.
Halloween
Is supposed to be scary.
But why does it feel
Like someone is
Watching your every move?
Walking to the bathroom,
You sigh and look in the mirror.
The stupid Bloody Mary game can't be real,
But you swear
You saw a shadow there.
With a sigh and a shake of your head,
You laugh it off as a trick of the eye.
I mean, it's Halloween!
Of course you'd be scared,
But not this much.
As you stand in front of the mirror,
You feel something touch your shoulder.
Turning around, no one is there.
With a shaky breath, you make the worst choice,
And go to your bed.
Still afraid, you can't seem to fall asleep at the moment,
And decide to turn the soft glowing lamp
Beside your bed on.
"Thank...you....for turning......on the.....light...."
Good-bye.
On Halloween Night,
You are trapped in an endless Pumpkin March.
But this parade is just a fantasy,
Knowing your real body.........
.........is dead...........
