Candlelight

The sun is hiding
The moon is shining
The sky blue
Now turns black
The stars whimper
Afraid of what they see
It is the month
The month of all scare
And no love
The time to dance on graves
As the candlelight flickers
The wax slowly melts
Seeping into the ground
To awaken all
It's eerie glow
Lightens little
Threatening to extinguish
In the sudden chill
They stalk by the glow
Of a candle
Waiting for it to run down
Like liquid tentacles
In a puddle of maroon
That comes alive
Shackling its victim
Making them scream
A simple kill all done with
A candle and its glow

Six trees all in a row. And as the wind begins to blow. They start to sway. And the leaves fall away. Crashing to the ground. The pirates treasure was never found. At the bottom of the ocean.

Hallows Eve

A whisper in the wind, The bodies have been skinned, A rustle through the trees, A sharp and bitter breeze, be careful not to freeze.

House of Horrors

What goes on in this darkened house Built beyond the graveyard gates. Evil, torture and lost souls A playground for where they all go. A house beyond the fear and yells.

Chains

A darkened palace, a prison, a keep, Where blood runs down and secrets seep, Corridors, endless, shadows dance, But perfectly silent, still at a glance, Chains clink and clatter, in the blackness,...
