I see more sand, than I see...

A sound different...

Premium Member Frightful Footles
Awake!
Hands shake

Room dark
So stark

In bed
Soft tread

On stairs
Raised hairs

Alone
No phone

'neath sheets
Heart beats

Door squeaks
Floor creaks

Spine chilled
Pants filled

Take chance
Risk glance

Bright slit
Back-lit

Shadow
Does grow

Nails scrape
Escape!

Laugh peels
Reveals

Best friend?
Amend!

To get...

A sign of life, no, not a trace.
This build and hall have...
