The little girl behind the doorA Poem by TaraShe beckons me Her white petticoat Fluttering in the breeze Her hair in plaits with white ribbons The sky is a perfect blue The clouds carrying nothing The grass speckled with flowers The trees seem to wave at me I look back at my grey, empty room Without hesitation I step into the strange new land She takes my hand My eyes wander Absorbing all I can A shooting pain goes up my arm I try to tug away She squeezes tighter A sinister grin grows on her face The sky turns blood red The trees die and rot The moon replaces the sun And the girls face morphs into something That even HELL would spit out A laugh fills the air A laugh from where an innocent girl Was stood only moments ago A deep voice fills the air A voice that could not belong to her "Are you ready to play?" I turn The doors shuts My scream echos through the empty landscape Drowning out the manic laughter
