The Black Quiet 2

Sitting up on your bed Something black slithers underneath Under your feet You blink And like that It’s gone You think you think you think Was it real? You feel something touch your skin You start itching Fear creeps in Sounds like A cold whisper on your cheek Someone said your name You freeze As the lights flicker the door creaks You hear stomping Then see Nothing You try to scream You fight to scream You cry But nothing You see and hear nothing It’s too quiet But your eyes are able to move When the lights go out The black quiet covers your house Crippling you To the floor Now I’m standing at your door!
