Stay Alive

Stay Alive

A Poem by NJ Schneider
"

One of my favorite movies. And I was bored so I decided to write about it.

"

I feel the air

Vibrate around me

Darkness closes in

But I can still see

 N

Hurry

Throw the rose!

Though you are safe

Stay on your toes

| 

You are only safe

Until she returns

 You must keep running

Even though it burns

 '

Hurry

Please, you must be fast!

If you do not succeed

You won't be her last

 "

The creepy things

They twitch and squirm

They come for you

You must hold firm

!

Hurry

Into the cript quickly!

Chills cause the goosebumps

That make your arms prickly

ú

Down the hall

And into a gruesom room

Many bleeding dead hung from above

A room for torture you assume

S

Hurry

Up the winding stair!

Get your nails and fire ready

You're almost there

 

 Through the heavy door

On the bed she lie

Be careful now

It's do or die

Ñ

Hurry

Bash in the nails!

Pray her soul return

And this not fails

 She comes to life

Her eyes black as night!

But you can't be scared

Because that was only half the fight

 N

Hurry

She's coming at you!

Grab the silver mirror

And show her the age that's true

 $

As she screams in horror

Get out your lighter

Let the blaze incase her

Fire is your final smiter

' 

 Hurry

You must get out of there!

Be quick and swift

Or the fire you will wear

M

 You made it out

Safe and alive

Her evil is gone for good

So get home and enjoy the drive

I loved this! The short stanzas reflected the urgency in the story & helped set an intense tone for the poem. The rhyme also worked well! Great job with this - I definitely enjoyed reading! =)

I really like it- it takes you on a journey as you read it. It flows together beautifully- you did a great job! And so what if it's long? lol you know I read all your stuff anyways.

I like it. It's poetry that steps one along on a story ride! I can't place the movie it's based off of, so on it's own i like it alot!
Great Job! :)

The picture symbols between the stanza's were a good touch!
