Sinister Misery

Settled for the night
Half dozing in my easy chair
A sudden chill washed over me
Sent tingles through my hair
A feeling looming over me like being watched. Is someone there?
Shadows casting frightful scenes
Bad omens in the air
Getting up to go to bed
It's getting late it's in my head
Going down the hall I don't remember being quite as long
As I go on, I start to yawn
The lights are off the blinds are drawn
Tonight, I don't know where mind has gone

Sinister Misery, bane of my dread
Terror of night that's lurking underneath my bed
Spectral malevolence, mysteriously strange
Phantasmic presence that's left me deranged

Trembling exhausted waiting shaking in my sheets
Wondering what putrid ghastly horror will I meet
Apprehension irrational nearly panicked at my thoughts
Foreboding trepidation painting snares in which I'm caught

My mind is racing, thoughts are pacing, ever tracing
Fear encased me, shadow gazing in my room
The last I wanted was to be haunted, ever taunted
Spirits flaunting, I embrace impending doom

Sinister Misery, bane of my dread
Terror of night that's lurking underneath my bed
Spectral malevolence, mysteriously strange
Phantasmic presence that's left me deranged

Paralyzed in fear my pen is shaking as I write
Now terrified I'm startled more by each and every sight
To petrified to move I'm frozen stiff due to my fright
Waiting for the morning sun to vanquish the night

Sinister Misery, bane of my dread
Terror of night that's lurking underneath my bed
Spectral malevolence, mysteriously strange
Phantasmic presence that's left me deranged
