Your Own Devil

I look inside your house

I turn off your lights

I scratch on your walls

I howl in the nights

I walk down your stairs and your hallways

You run away scared of what is coming

I come closer and closer

I smile hearing your heart beating

I run my nails on your walls

I scream and hear it echo throughout the empty halls

I can see you in my mind of how you’re in a ball covering your ears

I can hear your cries

I walk closer and closer slowly

I come to the closet from where your heart is pounding

I run my nails against it letting you know I’m near

I feel your fear while your thoughts are running

You wonder if you’re going to live

You’re wondering what I will do

You’re wondering what I will look like

You are wondering what to do

With my slimy dark hands I grab the door knob

A big smile from ear to ear is on my face

My eyes as wide as it can get

And deathly is my scared face

My laugh echoes

My sharp teeth grinding together

My mouth drooling

To have you would be my pleasure

The knob screeches

The door now creaks

Your small ball won’t protect you

You face full of fear as I speak

“I see you now,

Hear my voice

As I speak into your precious ears

For they won’t be there by my choice

I have you now in my grasp

I can kill you now in a flash

I will do something to scar your life

I could burn you into ash

But then you won’t live this to haunt you

I could scar your face

I could take your arm

I will offer no grace

I’ll make sure you wish you weren’t alive

I’ll make sure that you won’t sleep at night

I’ll make sure you will suffer

You will live under my light

You will die by your choice

For I will be right beside you

Under your bed

And everywhere through and through

For I am the devil

I will scar your life

You will suffer forever

Until it’s the end of your life

For the rest of your days

I will haunt you

For the rest of your days

You will be your own Devil.”
