A type of short story. I wrote this after a dream i had of it when i was 14.
As I lay in my bed
My room black as night
How tired I was
Inside me, I have nothing but fright
I toss and turn
Can not sleep.
But what do I have to fear
As I cover myself with my sheet
Three nocks on my door
They Echo through my room
My body grows week
As my fear grows strong.
I threw the sheets off me
"Who's there!" I loudly shreek

But no answer

My heart is pounding
Sitting up in my bed
I look left
I look right
But see nothing.
It is all in my head
I say to myself
My fear still strong
I lay back down
Again three nocks at my door
But louder then before.
Sitting up quickly in my bed
"I say, who is at my door?!"
What is happening
My body is numb
Sitting on the side of my bed.
I can not move
I try to speak.....

Nothing!!

What is happening to me.
I see my door opening
Who is there I try to speak....

Nothing!!

The hinges began to creeck
The sound was erie and long
My fear grew more strong.
The door now wide open
Who is there I try to say....

Nothing!!

My heart beats strong
Foot steps start to fall in my ears.
Closer and closer the sound
I can now see him
It is death
He is here for my soul to take.
Closer and closer death got
Stronger and stronger grew my fears.
This must be a dream
But it feels so real.
I must wake up!!
Why cant I wake up!!!!

He got closer and closer!
Why cant I move!
Why cant I speak!!
Is this what being dead feels like?
The walls began to creak
The floor began to shake.
Death now in front of me
What do you want I try to say.............

NOTHING!!!!!

His sythe in his right hand
Now ready to strike
As he raised it over his head!
Eyes glow a horid red!
He screams like a demon!!!!
I shut my eyes ready for the blow......

Room goes quiet.
The walls creak no more
The floor no more shakes
......Is that it.
My numbness is gone
My fear still strong.
I open my eyes.......
I stand before my bed

A knife in my hand
Blood driping off my hands
Blood on the wall......


WHAT HAVE I DONE!!
This can not be!!!!
I have killed my love!!!!!
