trick or treat4pm

The weather is dark and dreary
The smell of dirt and leaves pungent
to my nose
It’s the perfect night

Hurrying down the deserted road
stretching out before me
dark and desolate
I have somewhere I need to be

SSHHH
what’s that?
I just heard a noise.
It sounded like a moan
maybe it was just a ghost

I hurry faster as I’m sure
I just felt the cold dead hand
of a lifeless skeleton.
Maybe I can put this off until
the daytime

No. It needs to happen tonight
HAS to happen tonight.
If there is any hope of a resolution
It must be tonight

WHOA!

What was that?!
Just a bat, Don’t worry-
It’s not going to eat you
Just continue on your way

I’ve tried to stop several times
But it’s like something hypnotic
is drawing me closer and closer
Taking me somewhere that
I don’t want to go

There’s the gate-
just like I was told-
Not very sturdy, and not protected by
well—

anything really.

As far as cemeteries go
this one is definitely a creepy one
but I have to be here-
i have to see
Make sure
There’s a reason why i’m here

Something’s not right-
this cemetery hasn’t been used
for years and yet-
There’s a freshly dug grave

There’s rustling in the trees
and I fear that there’s something
that’s coming for me. I try to run
but I am rooted to this spot

Welcome my dear-
I was wondering when you
would show up
You’ve kept me waiting

We’ve prepared this place for you
to rest- I think you’re going to like it
here.
After all—you’re not getting out of here
alive.
