In The Night

You’re in your bed tucked in tight
You see a man coming out at night
Half blood half bones
You scream as he moans
He looks at you with an evil stare
You inch away with great beware
Every second closer he comes
Your heart is beating like ten drums
A devilish laugh fills the air
You do not breathe you do not dare
The man beholds a sharp bloody dagger
Your mind your heart they start to stagger
A petrified scream runs through the night
As the man in the dark laughs with delight
Your cold deadweight hands now lay on the ground
Your heart no more can start to pound
The man retreats into the night
The pain of death was such a big sight

    It is a very good write for a beginning. You can always revise it by adding more details, such as more fear, gore, sickness of the killer's mind, and evil behaviors. I began somewhere too, we all did, and that is how you become a better poet.

    Again I must draw on my feeble vocabulary to discribe your astounding poems. Just....I'm speechless....I love to feeling you put into this piece, my fav line's are 'Your cold deadweight hands now lay on the ground, Your heart no more can start to pound' It felt almost like a darkly morbid story....Your overflowing with talent. Loved it, yet again.
