Nigh

As the chittering grows
From the jittering bugs
The creepy crawlies flow
Under where the gravedigger dug

The dark shrouded veil
creeps over the land
The ghostly spirits sail
like ash, dust and sand

The empty lonely feeling
Of a dagger through a heart
The very same tool concealing
A secret loving art

The blood stained raindrops fall from the sky
Threatening death on all who can die
A mortal in fear will always sob a cry
But those teardrops fall bloodstained from the eye

Creeping up the staircase in the corner of an eye
The ghostly looking boy at the bottom of the stairs
He's hard not to miss but just ignore while passing by
He cries as he stares and endangers anyone who cares
He's a tragic figure but can make you die
He'll kill you in your nightmares
Your deathly slumber is nigh...
