Collect

Darkness fell and brought
with it trepidation.
Hurrying now
slight perspiration.
Looking behind
nothing following me.
Reaching the door
frantically turning the key.

Inside now
safe I'm sure.
Shaking all over
did I leave that light on?
Walking forwards
gut wrenching fear.
Notice a shadow  
of what it's not clear.

Closer now
outline of a man
sitting in the lounge
panic engulfs me.
Standing slowly
the shadow utters the words
You are here at last.
I've came to collect on The Curse

And those were the last words
I heard.  Alive.
