Some One Behind the Door

The dim light in the hall way Gave away signs of moving figures Scared of facing reality I turned my heart to the stars Wishing badly that I was in mars The vicious sounds of angry growling Drew my heart back to earth In the safety of my tiny room I stood scared and insecure Praying badly for daylight What seemed like blood seemed To be dripping from the weird figure!? Or was it water?did it matter.....?! I felt like screaming when my Name echoed all around me My imaginations took advantage Of the situation at hand Sending scary images into my mind I crossed my fingers and prayed Hard for daylight..somehow it Looked like the clock wasn't ticking As if watching a movie,I saw My life crumble before me Fear held me tightly and wouldn't Let go!who's there?!I cried Praying for a response Just like a miracle,it all stopped The figure wasn't there anymore All of a sudden someone knocked lightly on the door,who on earth Could be knocking at this hour. I stood still and wished for death.
