Howling In the Night

The dogs howl
In the middle of the night.
This has never happened before.
What could have gotten them so restless?
I don't want to look.
I'm scared of what I may see,
Of what I may not see,
Of what might suddenly pop out on me.
So I wait,
Cowering in my bed.
I can hear my heart
Loud and clear
Against my ear,
With the help of the pillow I rested my head on,
The cotton making it seem
Even louder.
I count the heartbeats.
One, two, three...
The dogs keep barking,
Restless and alarmed.
I start to wonder if I closed my curtain tight...
I'm starting to panic.
Four, five, six...
I pray to God that nothing serious happens,
That everything will be alright.
I can't close my eyes.
Seven, eight, nine...
A yelp,
Coming one by one.
My heart jumps in my throat,
And I suddenly fear for the dogs.
What could have happened to them?
What will happen to me?
I hear my window slowly slide open.
I was so sure I had closed the latch...
I start to cry, to shed a tear.
...Ten.
I am awake long enough to catch the splattering of blood on the walls.
