It's a hole, An abyss, A seemingly endless pit of nothingness. No light... No air... It's the very core of darkness. You see no shadows, but you feel their cold embrace. You hear no voices, but your thoughts fear their screams.
Your mind becomes the cruelest of all things. Drawing up the allusion of beast's. The ones that hide between the walls; knocking while you drift off to sleep. The ones that slip under the bed, as soon as the lights wink out. As soon as you full up the sheets...
The dark is the place of terrifying imagination. Were your worst dreams become reality. There is no escape, for you are blind. Only the monsters know where you are. And- and they are there. Waiting for you to shut off the light, for the sun to die... For the dark. For you to bring them to life.
A poetry writing prompt: Write a poem that will make the reader fear the dark...
Here is my try. Are you scared yet? I hope so. :P
This was fun to do. I encourage others to try this out.
