The Death Of Me - Poetry
In the midst of rain and thunder
Noises heard that make me wonder
What is lurking in the dark
Creeping shadows leave their mark
On my imagination
Which is surely running wild!
Wait!
Did you hear that?
It sounded like a
Child?
No, surely not,
It was probably a fox,
Anyway, I'm safe in here,
I've secured all of my locks!
But maybe I should check it out?
There might be someone needing help!
Looking out, I want to shout
Is there anyone about?
But my voice get's stuck and fails
As from behind me something
Wails?
I spin and look
To no avail,
Nothing!
Go back indoors
There's nothing here to see!
My front door slammed behind me
But I know I have the key...
So as the rain pours down on me
It's dark and I can hardly see
That wail again! From behind,
Where is that infernal key?
Turn to see what I can see
Night vision now helping me,
Oh!
You made me jump!
I know you from
Next door,
Did you hear that
Noise, that happened just before
You showed up here behind me
While I struggle with my door?
Behind the clouds the moon is full,
Bewitching eyes eternal pull
Struggling against my will,
Enchanting me, deathly spell!
Giving in to his embrace
Failing words in his caress
Enveloped
Now, in a dream
Reality seems
So far
Away
As I give in
To his bite
So to this world, I bid goodnight....
