In the dead of the night
A rattling in some far off corner
It stirs you to a fright
Was it real or in some other dream
A cold hand grasping at your leg
Cold, deathly frantic
You jump in total panic
No one there
Nothing to be seen
A feeling of an evil presence
The air chilling, condensing in place
A movement there, no it is gone
What is happening, what is wrong?
Everything stopping in time and space
You heart beating
Your chest divulging the harshness
You r mind trying to stop the heeding
No real life form, something much less
What is it, how did it get there
You never let it in, you duly swear
A distant knocking on a door
A screech of deathly curdle
Chains rattling closer and closer
Frigid air sweeping across the darkened room
Deadly beating of a heart in distress
Lives leaving everything you see
Will it leave you to be?
Touching with limbs of deadly fright
Nothing visible in your sight
A chill of death upon your body
A shrill of desperation, while you get groggy
Life leaving your body
Coldness settling upon your limbs
The knocking has stopped
The door opens
A shrill of horror never leaves your lips
