Again I have not done the freewrite as hosted by 
You can join the freewrite fun here
The prompt that I picked for the weekend freewrite is 'home alone'
Time: 7.02 am - 7.07am
Waiting for the clock
To strike four,
So my eyes will shut
The darkness between my lids
And my lips would cease
To tremble and mutter,
To whisper about shadows
Crawling on cracked tear stained walls.
And dogs are barking,
Random sounds are scraping
My earlobes, seeking,
Worming into my oesophagus
Like oil, like a black sulphuric stink.
I breathe and force back bile.
I try to dream, to pick
Pieces of beautiful light
But darkness sits atop my lids
And presses my face to the pillow.
It holds my hands and chokes my throat.
It throttles me until the sun peeks
And release comes.
I can't be home alone because
Then the demons, they come.
