The Open Tombs
The Open Tombs
As I sit at the corner of my room,
bored, and peering out of my window
in a dark night I see a bright glow,
and I notice the open tombs.
I look away terrified, with a locked jaw,
an act of light I say
but secretly in my mind I pray,
hoping those weren't open tombs I saw.
As my teeth rattle at the thought of them,
my doors open and close
soon my mind knows
the open tombs are the stem.
As everything around me zooms,
wind, whooshing and whistling
as my fear tears my sanity to a string,
I know I am being haunted, by the open tombs.
As I peer at the anarchy in my room,
I ask myself, now that I know
why I looked at the white glow at my window
as the terror around me, is the open tomb.
