House on the Hill

The shattered glass on the floor,
curtains torn and shredded,
the paint peeling off the wall.

The old abandoned house on top of the hill,
has more stories to tell than you or me,
of the haunted balls,
the ghosts that linger,
or the little girl and her dolly,
perhaps to tell of the story in which it was built.

No one knows for sure what happened there,
but what we do know is it still stands.

There are mirrors shattered,
dresses dirty with age,
and something hidden in the basement.

Do not open the basement door,
or the beast will unleash,
the unknown beast.

The shattered glass on the floor,
curtains torn and shredded,
the paint peeling off the wall.
