Looking into the screaming night,

the full moon left ways for me to see my steps.

Sitting on the far side of the boathouse,

I felt eyes gleaming towards me.


Worried sick, as I knew that something wasn’t right,

scared for what could happen to me

The lights in the boathouse flickered on,

as a shadow emerged in the dark.


The door clicked open,

a hand was lifted into the air waving at me. 

A voice echoed through the air asks,

“Are you alright?”, and a sigh of relief exhales from my body.
