Being mad is like being a child...
You talk to people who arent there...
And monsters are very real.
Let me show you something horrible,
Something you can see without leaving your front door.
Something that ever hides in the shadows.
And gives you shivers right down to your core.
(Your mind is very tricky.)
Why must a writer write up a horror.
Better to leave the space blank and let the reader create.
For only we know what we are afraid of.
When our eye's are closed and it's getting late.
It's what makes you look over your shoulder when your walking home.
Or look to the corner at night in your room.
It's what makes you turn on all of the lights when your alone.
The images that stay with you deep within and come out rough and very real, Jutting from the surface of your mind like a tomb.
Who needs a horror story to be afraid.
Who ever said growing up meant monsters would no longer have the power to evade you.
Who said you had to be a child to know that if your foot snuck outside the covers you could be attained.
You could be a hundred years old and still be unsure of the truth...
But one thing can be said...
Of all of the horrors in ones life, and all of the places where one's been.
When your lying in your bed at night...
The most dreadful monsters lie within.

Interesting poem. I liked it because it wholey conveys the sense of fear that people can create within their minds without rational explaination and the effect that fear has on the mind once it is there!
good write, keep em coming!!
