All The Nightmares Of The Town

~ Frank Solanki

They knocked at the door

I quietly let them in

Unaware of the chaos

They would bring within

…

They destroyed the furniture

Tore all the books

The fridge lay on the floor

The mirror called them crooks

…

They didn’t let me sleep

They danced all night

The house was pitch dark

They turned off all lights

…

Hours passed like years

Everything was upside down

It seems I had invited

All the nightmares of the town

…

I waited patiently

And watched the fading moon

The party was going to be over

Sun was coming soon

…

They packed their bags in haste

And were on their way

The screams and the scares

Weren’t here to stay

…

But before they left me for good

They whispered in my ear

They’ll be coming back tomorrow

When darkness would be near
