I finally stepped inside,
Locking the door with trembling hands.
I closed my eyes and listened for a voice,
A voice that would tell me 'It will be okay'.
But all I heard was the thunderstorm outside,
Raging like the beast, crackling like the devil.
Dragonflies rushed in, taking shelter in my home.
I looked at them as my phobia stepped in,
Wondering if I was their next feast.
Rushing from one closed room to another,
I tried finding my safe haven.
Yearning for the strong arms of my father and soothing words of my mother,
I rushed into the little attic.
It was the one place that blocked out all the sounds,
Sounds of the Satan's cry.
I took a pen, a paper and penned this down,
Hoping that one day these fears would die.
