You didn't believe stories spawned by the dead.
They visited you warning of perils to dread.
But, these you chose to blatantly ignore,
now of this world you are no more.
Your chair sits empty, your house alone,
a secret grave is filled with bone.
You try to reach to the world of the living,
hands searching, not grasping, death unforgiving.
The ranks of the dead there in the room,
knowing you'll stay forever entombed.
The house, you once loved, forever alone,
except for the spirits that make it their home.
The warnings of harm you chose to ignore,
will be sent to others who enter the door.
Will they listen and the instructions heed,
or will they too fall to this dastardly deed?
Dwelling with whispers of the evil within,
calling other victims from the cold, evening wind.
