I'm all alone, with no home;
I wonder if I'll make it out, there is a doubt,
I'm shivering every night; with a fright,
I want to climb up a palm tree, over sea...
and rest forever....
I see some fog, it looks like smog,
I listen to the waves crash, a simple bash;
sitting on the window, i'll never know
how i could get a simple second of sleep...
without hearing a peep...
I go outside. by an old log;
i sit on it.. and its on a bog!
i start to sink like my bleeding heart;
life falling apart..
i adjust my glasses and grab a vine,
before its the end of the line;
i climb and swing;
my body to fling,
i land safely on my creaky old porch;
lit by a dim-lighted tiki torch,
occasionally invisible shadows riple,
i feel very cripple;
for i cant move my legs..
once i can, i run inside;
a hallway deep dark and wide,
i run down the never ending hallway;
i am wishing it to be day,
the ripples follow;
the lumps in my throat are hard to swallow,
i run to my room,
before sudden doom;
i lock the door,
the creature wants more!
it punches through the door!
i run to my closet, open the door and hurry inside,
i need a place better to hide!
because once i got in my old deep dark closet and
closed the door...
i felt  a drip of drool, and blood written on my door
that said "ROAR!",
i looked at it in horror, and felt as two eyes stared down
upon me..
then it was there, it was HE!
it came down from the ceiling, of my deep dark closet,
drooled a lot, and bared its jaws,
i wish it was my cat;
with her soft soft paws..
but instead replaced with CLAWS!
my hand searched for the door knob, and found it with relief;
and ran out, from that kid stealing thief!
i ran through the house;
as quiet as a mouse,
i ran out the back door and into the swamp.
hearing behind me a loud enormous THWAMP!
i went into the swamp, leaving my footprints behind;
bad idea! cause he knows knows my kind!
i ran through the swamp, then tripped on a gator..
luckily it saw the monster, and decided to chase me later..
i ran up a tree; hoping it couldn't climb..
i looked all around; not the creature in sight!
i sighed with relief and still saw nothing in the night.
i look up and down; but not yet have turned around..
for there i heard a snarl... hoping it was a lost wolf..
i slowly turned around; and with wide eyes...
let out a horrifying shriek!
all of its arms spread out and its eyes only stared..
i stared back;
for i was his midnight snack!
all spread arms swiftly aimed for me;
faster than eyes could see.....
.....
...
..
.
it turns out he just wanted to hug me!

Aww! Wow, I'm so late on this. -_-

Better than me, I'm bad at rhyming, although sometimes I do it without knowing. Lovely poem! :)
