No More Darkness
It's dark and cold, but warm at the same time. I can hear things moving around. I'm starting to panic and become paranoid with every little movement and sound.
It's too dark for me to see a single thing. The only light around was the faint glow from my phone.
Squeaking doors were echoing throughout the almost silent house. I could feel the vibrations of somebody walking around. My heart began to beet faster as the sounds grew louder and closer to me. But to top it all off, I just had to be reading a book about a psychopath in the dark, right before bed. And now it's almost five 'o clock in the morning, I'm tired but too scared to fall asleep.
I can see that it's still looking midnight outside and the blurred reflection of my phone light.
The darkness of the room scares me. I'm too afraid to get off of my bed, or even move. But I had to go to sleep. I positioned my self comfortably in my bed, and played my over heated blanket on top. As soon as it gets even more dark I switch my phone off, and become engulfed by complete darkness.
Shadows swarm around me, telling me terrible things. I could feel them pull my hair and scratch me until I was bleeding and crying.
They left me there, bleeding to my death. I wanted to shout as loud as I could possibly go, but I was stopped my something horrific. I was mute. The pain of the scratching stung but didn't last long.
I was surrounded my too much darkness. But now that I look out the window, I start to see the light of the sun rising. The once black sky was now turned into a nice pail blue. And the room around me, began to take it's form and colors.
It was now safe to say that there was no more darkness.

When had written this one, very early, morning. Around four in the morning, I think. I remeber that I was scared after reading a story of a psychopathic lover, then hearing my step father come home.
