A Dream

In the darkness of the night,

When the moon is shining bright,

And the wind is howling loudly,

Comes with a feeling oh so proud.

A chill runs down your spine,

As you walk that lonely line,

With each step, you take in fear,

The suspense grows ever near.

Eyes peer from the shadows deep,

And your heart begins to leap,

As you feel a sudden breeze,

And the rustling of the trees.

You know you're not alone,

But you cannot find the tone,

To speak the words that lie within,

As the terror starts to begin.

A figure appears before you,

And you're frozen, don't know what to do,

The music starts, you hear the beat,

And you realize you're in for a treat.

The thriller that unfolds,

Is a story that's been told,

Of suspense, of fear, of mystery,

And it's all just make-believe.

But as you watch it all unfold,

You feel the power of the story told,

And you know that in your heart,

You'll never be torn apart.

For the thrill of the night,

Will always be your guiding light,

And the memories of the fear,

Will always bring you near.
