Entering an Unknown DomainA Poem by Angellesa
I do not know the name as I enter this domain. The walls of stone seeping with blood. My heart gives a tremendous tug. The lump in my throat. Swells like it is going to explode. How did I get here. What is my reasons for this game. All I wanted was to fit in and not be ashamed. Fear, oh the fear. I hate the taste . It brings me near to the hell I do not want to see. But to prove I am a member of this popular team. I entered this realm to show I fit in. But thinking twice I should have spent the evening doing something else. The growls are loud and cries rip through my ears. I do not know if I will make it through here. Oh damn! Did I see that? Something went by, I think it was a bat. I just want to close my eyes and run. But Tommy says "No this is fun". Hahahaha I know fun. This is hell and I want a refund. I follow the halls and as they curve. The lights blink on and off causing me to swerve. I feel dizzy and sick. Something jumps from behind and grabs my left arm and attacks. I yank free yelling with a fierce scream. "Let go of me!!!" I never look back but take off in a full run. Passing everyone else and then bang It sounds like a gun. Popping my ears. Spinning my head. I take a dive and slide across the dusty floor Feeling as if I would not live any more. I jump up never turning my head. I see an exit sign in red. I dash for the door hearing screaming galore. My heart is pounding the sweat is running down my face. I hit that door without any grace. Bashing out and jumping free. I fall on the ground and look up at my friends standing by a big old oak tree. Laughing and Pointing at me. "It was only a haunted house, dummy." Gees I feel like a mouse. But I do not care. I did not want to go in that house. I wanted to do something else.
