This is a haunting tale
But one that needs to be told
About an evening visit
A black mass in the cold
Particles did vacillate
The air seemed a tomb
Pitch black in the corner
There was something in my room
Beware the shifting shape
It comes into your place
It is the creeping darkness
The one without a face
It did not frighten me
Until it moved bedside
It moved across my heart
I thought that it had died
Maleficent creature
My vision blacking down
Away the still night
Without even a sound
When a spirit is out to scare you
Do not panic on the floor
Soon this vision will exit
Its energy under the door
