In Darkness

I enjoy a good scare, and from time to time enjoy writing within the #horror and #fantasy realm.

In Darkness

T'was blackest midnight; a girl laid sleeping in her bed

She lay perfectly still in the chill of the night

A shroud of silent darkness cloaked her head

The air was stale as she slept unaware of her plight

A spider crept and crawled its way up to her legs

On long, black spiky pins with fangs, sharp and large

Hesitant in its mission, it suddenly took charge

It was deep in her nostril, no longer to be seen

Still the girl did not stir, her face a bluish green

As the weeks passed, the spider's eggs hatched

Hundreds of little spiders wiggled out her ear

To her bed, the girl was now quite firmly attached

Mummified in silk webs, causing her to disappear

From her eternal slumber she would not awaken

By a twist o fate she had been forsaken.
