iPoetry-Paper Poetry Prompt

The Start of a New Experience — The End of You

A trip you will never forget

Photo by Huma Masood on Unsplash

Your very first camp trip! Excitement wasn't enough to describe To describe what you were feeling

Were you going to meet new friends? What activities were you going to do?

Your family and you got there The farewells were rushed You immediately went with the other kids

You introduced yourself Everyone was so welcoming

The very first day… Everybody swam and ran At night, you were tired Happy but tired

Your friends and you went to your cottage It was so picturesque

To your amaze, they started to tell horror stories You knew they were all made up But it still got you the goosebumps

And more when they started to share A murder of a girl A girl that was taken by a ghost A ghost that wandered around the camp Wandering around while clicking his tongue

Was there some truth to this tale?

After a few more hours, everyone went to sleep You tried, but you couldn’t Those stories affected more than you thought

You tried to use the sounds of nature to calm you The rustling of the wind Pushing the trees to a light swirl Crickets singing to the moon

A clicking sound

You opened your eyes shut You listened more intensely What were you hearing? Could it be?

A clicking sound

You thought it was getting nearer and nearer Was that really what you were thinking of?

You then just realized! You could hear it because it was close to you

You shivered relentlessly You couraged up Managing to posture yourself next to the window above

You peeked Nothing Nothing was there

A loud sigh You were happy But still stressed-out What was that sound?

You waited You did not move an inch The sound was still there You could hear it

A clicking sound

To your fear Now you knew where it came from

It was below you Below the cottage Waiting… Waiting…
