You all know it's approaching. Come on, did you really expect me to let a major spooky holiday pass us by and not shoot a few bad poems or stories of mine at you guys?
Of course, this thread is a Halloween-themed writing type thread. Everyones' work is welcome here, but of course I expect to be doing the brunt of it all(as usual >.&lt
But as the holiday season draws nigh, I present to you...
Halloween!

On the night All Hallow's Eve
When the eye can sight
What you would not believe
Don't go out at night
Believe me, stay inside
Draw the curtains, lock the doors
Stay; don't run, don't hide
Or you might find you're not yourself anymore

The werewolves howl to the moon
Vampires watch, hear their croon
What is this darkened madness
Awake within you the buried sadness
Live alone, don't fall asleep
Look out for the dangers that lurk in the deep
Darkness comes; the creatures run
From the pure evil that hides from the sun

Evil, bloodsoaked pacts
Chanted in the dark
There's no going back
It all seems stark
What's the whole point
But there's no time to think
So who will we anoint
We feel ourselves begin to sink
Cannot swim...lost within

Hear the banshee's tortured wail
Know your quest is doomed to fail
And as the darkest night draws near
Who knows what evil's hidden here
Claws shall rip and rend
You shall see the bloody end
Pray to your god, whomever they are
They can't help you, opening a deeper scar

Evening draws nigh
With a tear in your eye
An abject failure; feel the pain
And know that no hope shall remain
On the darknest day, the darkest night
Prepare yourself for the deepest fright
Muster your strength, rein in your fear
Even though you know you will die here
Shadows twist, every noise is a jolt
As you wait to be killed by the cult

O, the terror of All Hallow's Eve
We scream, but no help shall be received
As the demons awake and our souls they shall take
We cannot help but ask ourselves why
And keep hoping for light, and reach for the sky
As we're enveloped by death, the dark, the decay
We drag ourselves through to just another day

Hmmm...not the worst poem I've ever written, but more are to come! Brace yourselves!

Thanks, but no, actually, I wrote that one pretty quickly.
As I predicted, I am doing the majority of the writing in here. *sigh*. Not sure if this thread is worth keeping alive, really.
