They come at night
They bite
They’re shuddering
With sin
A wraith, a ghost
They boast
They’ll take us all
We’ll fall
Intruders deep
They creep
I cannot weep
Nor sleep
I cannot breathe
Please leave
I’ve paid the cost
But lost
They come at night
They bite
Their darkened glow
Won’t go
They’re so near
I fear
They come at night
They bite

For some reason, I keep thinking of spiders in the dark.
Could be spiders…. 🙂 🙂
Darn bedbugs, I’ve stayed in hotels where they seem to be complimentary instead of chocolates LOL 🙂
LOL!! 🙂 🙂
I had visions of the cockroaches i wrote about the other night…lol
Yes, definitely could be cockroaches from my memory of living with a cockroach plague!! 🙂 🙂
heebee jeebees – these are heebee jeebees – which can be anything and everything. 🙂
Very true, thank you!! 🙂 🙂
Great imagery. I agree with words4jp, “heebee jeebees”. Each reading, it would evoke a new potential.
