On Halloween Night
On Halloween night
Walking down a silent unending deserted road,
When every little sound was igniting a spook,
Lacking moon and stars was the dark sky,
Pusillanimous hearts were heaving a deep sigh,
Reflections approaching, heart missed a beat,
Withholding of breath, air surely did cheat,
Fearful ash faces, mingled hair and spiky teeth,
Fiery red eyes, pulled out my soul and seized,
As I found my blood ooze and freely flow,
Could I resist fainting with a painful pale glow?
Surrender to Halloween without a fight,
Who can ever forget that dreadful night ?
Ghosts of loneliness are obvious to haunt,
Worst fears in mind will however taunt,
Evils and demons in hell certainly celebrate,
Negative thoughts are lethal even if not deliberate!
