Creepy Poems

In gentlest hands

They walk as if they're guided
By winds and gentle hands
Hold lanterns the distance 
Held in childish hands

Afar you see them floating 
Their Laughter echoes on
Those gentle hands caress them
These ghosts we are among 

They were the Children of the sun
But darkness called so sweet
They embraced the gentlest hands 
Walked with childish feet

They dissappear into the

Premium MemberWee Willy Winky is Creepy

Wee Willy Winky creeps about the town
Into children’s bedrooms he’ll be peeking.
Sometimes if he finds an open window,
into that child’s room he will go sneaking.

He fancies himself a Sandman.
But nothing like the Sandman is he.
No peace does he bring the sleepless kid
as he creeps about in hours that are wee.

He sprinkles no sand into sleepy

Premium MemberTwinkle, Twinkle

Gleaming diamonds that dot the skies
Peering through the night with trillions of eyes
Behind crescent smiles, you wink a distant threat 
Oh, faceless gaze, how I wonder what you're looking at

You come with shrouds that cloak our sun
As hellfire burn behind the black you've spun
You weave the constellations like gossamer webs
While in wide-eyed wonder, we meander

Lurking

The walls whisper secrets I don’t understand,
Shadows curl and stretch like reaching hands.
Cold fingers graze my shoulder in passing,
Eyes gleam from corners that shouldn’t exist.
Footsteps echo softly, following me closer,
And when I turn, no one is there.

creepy crabby Cruella was a cracking crackpot
criticizing creatures until they cringed on the spot
cruel and crosswise, Cruella earned exactly what she got
a crazy, crusty, crotchety old man who smoked yesterday’s pot

Premium MemberMy Bloody Lovely Valentine

My bloody lovely Valentine,
This year, let me cross the line.
Throughout the restless months, 
My dreams are holding you in my mind. 

Making me want to make this Valentine's Day,
Into something more bold, dark, twisted, yet bright.
Because my love I want you to be my bloody lovely Valentine.

No twelve dozen roses to wilt and fade,
Nor sucky

The Risk of Hope

A light shone in the distance,
As it neared my place in the void
I felt its warmth 
I saw its smile 
I heard its laugh
The light came closer,
It got too hot
Its smile was too wide
Its laugh had other plans.

Premium MemberCreepy ABC

Adam’s apple screams
Bloody beware
Candy poisoning 
Death in the air
Evil lurking by
Funny creepy laugh
Glowing in dark pines
Haunted Halloween path
Interesting scary movie 
Jumping at the climax
Killer is carrying ruby
Lantern wearing eye patch
Making my skin crawl
Night
Onyx with delight
Phones all on pause
Quick to fight or flight
Red eyes because they’re tired
Still stuck watching 
TV 
Unfortunately desired
Vampire’s death is a thing
We
