That Night

Silently I walked in

No one was there

But I am sure

I heard, someone was calling me

Banging at my door

Should I care?

Or must be an imagination.

WAIT!

Footsteps. I could hear it

The clear sound coming from the basement

I walked, walked and walked

As if it's miles away 

Took every step

Ready to flex

Deep my confidence lay

Shivering all over

Unlocked and openend the door

Slowly I stepped down the stairs

Pitch black I found the room

No one I could find there.

"What was that?"

Oh! Just a rat.

About to turn, I felt

Someone just crossed

Turned and gazed

As if I am not afraid

But in real

I can't explain 

The eerie feeling

Something is crossing the line.

Hurriedly trying to walk

I went towards the door

Wanted to go out

As fast as possible

I felt the chills to my core

Because I could feel someone 

Standing behind me

Starring with neutral expression

I didn't want to turn

I didn't want to see

Just wanted to leave 

I climbed up the stairs.

"COME BACK" whispering sound

"COME BACK" loud commanding

I hurried.

OH GOD! MY LEG.

Got stuck in between the stairs

I twisted it in every possible way.

The door of the basement started closing

I looked back

Thing like a shadow

Coming towards me

Holding my leg and I pulled it out

Ran towards the door.

Came out.

Pressed shut.

"BANG"

The sound came when I closed.
