Little Johnny's Demons

Do you remember when you were a kid and all you could think about at bed time was scary things? What about if you hung your arms or legs off the side of your bed, a monster would get you for sure?

Rain beats at my window with a purr of thunder to join in on the song.

The clock ticks slowly tick, tock, tick.. tock..

Erie shadows fill my room from normal things on the street outside.

A monster slowly crawls out from under my bed.

It reaches up the side to grab me and take me away. 

Outside a car rushes by and the shadow is gone.

My breathing gets slow and paced as i hide behind my rocket ship blanket.

I hear my closet door open ever so slightly.

Maybe it happened or maybe it's a figment of my overactive imagination.

Theres a humming in the white noise around me.

Shadows lift off and dance around me. 

In my state of innocence there is nothing I can do.

The lightning strikes and the wind sings a creepy tune.

frightening figures on the wall jump at me and i close my eyes.

Suddenly, I am alone. In the dark.

My eyes are closed.

No one can see me.

The shadows slowly disapear and the rain is now a suttle tap on my window.

I Slowly Drift off and go to sleep.

Darkly pleasant with an air of tensed revenge, well done

I liked this. I can definitely relate! I used to imagine that all sorts of crazy things were in my room when I was young. :) It's kind of creepy if you read it from a little kid's perspective! You did a great job with this.
Erie --> eerie
Suttle --> subtle
