The Black Room












That eerie feeling, you’re not alone
Petrified to move, you lie perfectly still
Feeling the weight and presence
Of something beside you
But no one else is home
You breathe very shallowly
So that you can listen in
Complete silence

Darkness heavily lingers
You strain to see the contents of
The black room
Slowly you turn your entire body
Toward this unnatural thing
Your soul is warning you
It’s pure evil

Its silhouette is strangely
Darker than the room
It’s just sitting there next to you
Not moving
Just breathing
As you gently turn toward it to see
What you’re up against
It senses your movement

Simultaneously you and
This evil presence turn your heads
Your eyes meet
You look into its flaming red eyes
Its hideous face is contorted
Not of human form
Its razor sharp yellow teeth show
As it snarls at you
It grabs you

Your alarm clock goes off
Your body jerks awake
Thank God it was just a nightmare

Or was it
