A trip to the cemetery on Halloween....
~ Nightmare ~
by Heidixoxo
Halloween night you must be brave
While to cemetery to search ol' graves If you don't believe then tonight you will Be prepared to be quiet, cautious and very still It's pitch black with only the hum of a breeze It felt like searching for the devils seed Whatever is seen solely out of luck Don't summon spirits because here they'll be stuck Suddenly feeling you're no longer alone Crying in fear and pleading to go home The cars been moved completely out of sight Now even the flashlight will no longer provide light Out in the distance and into the dark Figures walking with a hound that barks Running towards then for help I pray They're spirits watching us - I stop and stay Sounds are heard coming from all around These are not human but rather spirit bound Bones are cracking as the groans become clear I'm shaking and trembling as they come near Graves are not graves but mounds of dirt As I pass by a child spirit gives a lil' smirk Wild beasts are now snarling right at our backs I need to awaken so my face I give a slap When I wake I jump out of bed Not real I say but a bad dream instead I pull back the covers to get back to sleep But I'm terrified to see a pile of dirt at my feet! |
