When I closed my eyes
BY NA’QUAYLA RANDOLPH
When I closed my eyes,
My world went black.
I entered into another world
(an illusion, if that).
Like before I appeared,
Moaning came back,
I was lying on my bed.
And I arose from my peace.
Asleep, until I heard a
I opened my eyes,
Sound so similar to the dead.
And let out a loud scream..
At first I thought it faded.
The killer was in my room!
I listened for it as I awoke.
My tired body was heading asleep,
Until I heard a loud croak.
In front of me, he stood.
In one hand, he had a blade
And in the other, a lot of wood
There, I began to weep,
For I knew I saw my doom.
Before the blade could touch me
I awoke in the same room.
