Fear

Icy fingers grip my heart,
As shock rocks through each bone,
The knocking's getting louder,
And I'm in this house alone.

Fear has kept me frozen,
Like fossils in the snow,
I want to move, I want to run,
But cannot seem to go.

It's gradually getting louder,
As it moves along the hall,
My form begins to tremble,
And my nerves begin to pull.

It's at my door, I hold my breath,
Perhaps it will not know,
That I am in the pitch dark room,
And so it'll up and go.

The door nob turns, the door it shakes,
I lose all voice I had,
It opens wide and to my surprise,
It's just my stupid dad!
