Haunted Forest

 

The forest was deep, deafly-quiet

When first I stumbled almost blindly through;

A dense darkness, engulfed me

Causing my heart to faint;

Her embrace as death hands;

Like a sarcophagus, too, her ghastly grasp;

But all things else about its scary form

From gnarled branches sticking out;

To creepy whispers, rustling leaves,

To haunt, to frighten, grabbing me.
