Night, Alone?

Alone I was
Walked out the door
Into the night
Where darkness was more
Trying to clear
My mind of this day
So detremental
I'd describe it, I'd say
I wanted to be alone
Not noticed
Not seen
Wanted nobody to talk to
Just the forest and me
I walk down the path
Found a trail in the moonlight
Thought I was alone
Till something jump in front of me
Covering my sight
It seemed like a shadow
So large
covering the moonlight
I could no longer see the trail
chills shot up my back
And then my heart dropped
I had felt something sharp
And right after that part
And everything went black

Next thing you know
I'm sitting in my chair
With a book on my lap
Warmed by the heat in the air
I look ahead at the bright orange flame
Surrounded by stones
A large shelf sat on top
With picture frames
Photos of the graduates
Pics of the fam and friends in all
Slowly in drift off
Lost in all the thought
But suddenly awaken
by the sound of the shaking of the door knob
I turn my head around
And it stops
Not sure as to why
Out of curiosity I step up
Out of my chair
I start walking to the door
But I stop in my tracks
When I hear it once more
And this time I see it
The door knob shaking right in front of me
I want to open the door
But I'm scared of what I'll find
Our even what I'll see
The knob stops it's shaking
and then I hear the lock
Clicks
As the door opens
And suddenly I'm on shock
My heart is pounding
As I hide behind the door
And I hear the door creeking
As it widens more and more
A stranger stands before my eyes
Dressed in dark clothes
All covered up
From the head to their toes
hiding any visible identity
So no body knows
He doesn't see me hiding
But I'm still scared to death
My heart pounding heavily
Deep within my chest
Quietly I take a step forward
For a closer look
Of who this could be
Looking at him facing his back
I blink
And just like that
He's gone
I shake and tremble
then I feel trickle of heat on my shoulder
A warmth covering my back
I stop in my tracks
And don't moves
For a sec I don't even breath
Scared that what ever is behind me
Might pounce
at the sound of a single release of breath
And at that moment I'm out of breath
And the world turns black
