Nightmare

A sudden fall
a desperate call
a chill in the air
a fatal dare
a strange sighting
dim lighting
shuffling sounds
unholy grounds
rising panic
an evil manic
a familiar face
a quickened pace
a mysterious story
evils glory
shadows and shapes
curtains and drapes
an urgent request
a shaken guest
bedtime tears
midnight fears
a flash from the past
memories that will last
a lonely time
a deadly rhyme
uneasy doubt
no way out
