I didn't leave you

Quick write for the Nightmares contest.

I only said goodbye.

Maybe I was brusque,
  I was in a hurry.

I didn't know.

I didn't know what was waiting for you.

Why did you do that?

Now,
  I can't sleep,
    knowing you are waiting.

When I close my eyes,
  I see you,
    and you smile,
      giving me a cold wink.

I feel like someone is buried in the basement. ; )

Now, I could go all Poe!

This is very interesting. It is creepy in a subtle kind of way.

I can't help but think, this is one which requires a second look. It doesn't try and scare you, but maybe, it sticks in the back of your mind.

[Lyn Anderson]

Oh, it is definitely creepy.

Might be time for me to go on a macabre run!
