Scary Moments
It's scary to think of such things
I've gone through, or maybe have seen
Listen close to the words
Shh. Just read
Average day could do no wrong
As screams running through the hall
I panic , to check the case
My sister urged me into the room
I saw the terror in her face
I asked what happened, she replies
"The door! It just busted open "
Mother whispers of evil spirits
"They've let themselves in!"
The jolt of fright trembled our feet
So now you've found yourself
In a room full of fears
Trapped there with sisters tears
Heart beat drowned pain you felt
The slow footsteps that made you melt
It must be a joke, this isn't real!
Until we watched the knob turn
Gently and slow, our bodies still
"Block the door!" I yelled
Don't let it in!
Watching the door open
We could only wonder
As the figure creeped
Each step brought weakness
In our bodies to fade to sleep ...
The first night soon went
As if a dream meant to measure
Our worst nightmare
The reality of when...
It came back the second...
