The House of Boo

Lights out shadows bloom crawling hands slide to me across a midnight room I fear my blankets may not be the best defenses that I could muster still the chill beyond is like lizard claws reaching from the hereafter silent things scream from silent dreams BANG still the room is still yet im filled with a cold IM TERRIFIED!!! IM TERRIFIED!!! IM TERRIFIED!!! IM TERRIFIED!!! pause cold im alone I pick up the phone but I fear that its been disconnected I dont even check because I hear a breath and I know this is the end of me. im going to hell. a silent scream it whispers free from me my mouth is dry my eyes are wide I'm statuesque petrified the room is BLACK! my mind is RED! I'm alone in the room but theres someone in my head! HUNGRY HANDS HAUNT ME IN THE NARROW OF THE NIGHT IM THING, SHAKING BEGGING for a precious night-light because.. IM TERRIFIED IM TERRIFIED IM TERRIFIED IM TERRIFIED!!! What should I do when the nightmares come true the lampshades have faces and the closets are cruel gasp and TREMBLE, weep and DROOL dawns glorious light a stale recourse im the empty cup Im still seeing stars well thats all right its like im already there seven dawns UP seven moons DOWN I'll get to sleep some night soon thats all right its like im already there
