The night was dreadfully frightful, the chill was in the air.
The silence so engulfing, I swear I heard them stare.
My hands were visibly shaking, I could feel trembles to my toes.
My nerves were so unraveled, how much further could I go?
I tried to look around me, but my eyes just would not see.
I wrapped my arms around me, I wished this were a dream.
I'd never felt such terror, It shook my very soul.
Thier presence all around me, their haunting me I know.
I tried to scream out loud, with my body full of fright.
But not one word was spoken, though I tried with all my might.
I knew they were still out there, I could feel their evil grins.
How much longer can this go on? How much longer til they win?
I tried to take another step, in the darkness all around.
But I realized I was floating, my feet weren't on the ground.
Then suddenly before me, I could see this horrored sight.
And suddenly this anger, was replacing all my fright.
The memories came rushing back, like water from a fall.
There stood the man that took my life, standing in the hall.
Tears was flowing down his face, as though he were in pain.
And then I heard him cry out loud, I heard him call my name.
With no control I went to him, and seen his look of shock.
He tried to turn and run away, but found the door was locked.
He turned around to look at me, as he fell against the door.
I took my hand and reached for him, as he fell down to the floor.
His hands were visibly shaking, I could feel his trembles in my soul.
His nerves came all unraveled, as he begged for me to GO!!!
He swore that he was sorry, he'd do anything I asked.
I somehow found this funny, and soon began to laugh.
I'd never seen such terror, as I seen in him that night.
As he screamed out to my family, it was him that took my life.
My eyes were fixed up on him, as he felt his burning flesh.
The fear in him so frighting, his heart lept from his chest.
My friends and family all around, with shock up on their face.
Stood motionless in silence, frozen there in place.
As they watched my husband die, his body turn to grey.
Not knowing that I came for him, to join me in my grave.
