The Room Called Unknown
Illustration by Mar Eway
Into a dark room, she goes
To that place of old of which no one knows
Steady are her footsteps, regular is her breathing
But the shake of her hands are in no way deceiving
Her eyes travel the roomcalled unknown
Seemingly empty except for a strange piece of human bone
All of a sudden, she saw from her vision’s periphery
A spark of redness that made her feel all the more eerie
Gulping down her fear, she drew nearer
Curious, no increasing level of dread could have stopped her
Eyes wide open, she let out a yell!
As her gaze met the those of a demon from hell
She hurriedly backed away in terror
From the red eyes that caused her further fright and tremor
The demon’s lips smiled in satisfaction
At seeing the girl in her desperation
Turning swiftly, she saw a half dead
His face is melancholic; his tears are unshed
His eyes were popped out; his skin was falling apart
By 90% did that raise the panic in her heart
To the other side, she went running
Til she reached a corner and heard sobbing
Positive was she of being alone in that room
So who is that girl weeping about her doom?
She then noticed a chain saw being brought out
The sight of which caused her to shout
“Especially for you” were the words of the holder
One could only conclude he wants to kill her
So terrified was she of her potential death
That she ran out til she was out of breath
She stopped when she saw a man in a cape
He wore all black and looked ready to rape
Sweat broke out of her forehead
But the man only came to her and said
“You don’t have to flee the scene
We only wanted to say Happy Halloween!”
