THE MARUN HORROR

More weeks and iced chills. The cold season
comes with long rails. I run for cover,We run for
cover.
Yet,still through it seeps in. Another bang on the
door_Another human approaching to awaken the
sore.
The sun has set a long time ago.
All the activities that made the day aglow.
Happy faces,Happy children.
Sad eyes of their mothers all knowing.
Still,sleep dare ladens my eyes.
Another bang echoed through my battered
shelter


Bolting up from where I lay.
It was maybe not all in my mind,I realized.
Roaring voice of the Marun Man blares my ears.
Slow motions become my sudden movements.
Cries of my heart are all I hear.
A loud cheer of fear engraves my face.
What more does he want?
Butterflies in my tummy sing and chant.
I scotter around as though I search to find a
saving grace.
Making way for the Marun Man.
He flaunts strong glares at me_I shiver.
With his red,hot eyes with so much hate.
Then I concluded what my fate was meant to
be.


Dost I dare scream?
He reads my thoughts;
And a slap unwounds on my face.
Cool the ebb,I pray thee.
I am so scared_For reasons I convince myself I
do not know.
Leaping off my bed_As though a pin pricked me.
It was a dream.
Sighs of relief bathed my mind streams.
My fear,my cowardice.
And yet I dream of a life in paradice.
My greatest horror I must overcome;The Marun
Man I must defeat.
It is until then shall I be able to achieve greater
feats.
