Peace surely is but a hollow word
millions of voices never heard
such pain etched on blank faces
forced to move to many places
from their homelands removed
by unknown authorities approved
ever-increasing people displaced
on the news their plight showcased
the growing masses seeking refuge
that in a short time is now a deluge
having nothing wanting a better life
but are met with simmering strife!
a crisis countries are unable to cope
society slips down a slimy rope!

Down into the deep cold dank tunnels
the group headed to investigate
a historic fort on the rugged coastline
protecting the nation for centuries
the ominous granite walls a landmark
what waited for then in the dark?
It was to be not only their first visit
no other group had entered
since the fought had been occupied
by soldiers during the war
in the forties its last official conflict
their findings could not predict!
Down the stone steps to a bolted gate
three apprehensive men
entering felt the rush of stale cold air
hit their faces gasped to breath
keeping together moved with vigilance
they were feeling intense!
Head torches piercing the deep blackness
water dripping from above
walls slimy to touch any sound magnified
in the distance a female scream
loud shouting voices to halted progress
their enthusiasm did suppress!
Uneasy about getting lost decided to retreat
as a deep groan then vicious push
made them turn and run in a blind terror
soon back at the entrance panting
feeling safer now pondered their evidence
implications for research immense!
It had been picked up by their equipment
this reinforced their commitment!
Knew they had to go back into the tunnels!

The happy family moved into the large house
on the edge of a lake
all were unaware until their teenage children
found a hidden overgrown well
first from a distance noticed the outline
at that time not able to define!
Behind tall weeds concealed was discovered
the relic emitting a sentient power
both felt it had to walk from the dire location
were afraid to tell their parents
of this startling undiscovered garden addition
that seemed in perfect condition!
For a while was forgotten as the house was fixed
to decorate and make theirs
being uninhabited for years before they found it
on a holiday the place a dream
with its supreme views and large lake location
space and liberation a great combination!
Nothing happened for some time life was good
they kept their distance
until the daughter saw lights darting about
flickering in a pattern
resisting the urge to go near just observed
yet her confidence unnerved!
Over the next few days the lights increased
as nobody else noticed them
began to feel it was only meant for her gaze
and a compulsion to explore
in her dressing gown on a bitterly cold night
went to peek like a ghost in white!
She was sleep walking in her mind could see
a girl waving so excitedly
a nice day she just wanted to meet and play
greeting as though friends
in reality nobody visible there she was alone
unprotected in a disaster zone!
The young girl’s face changed to sallow skin
dead eyes stared a victoria’s cry
the teenager awoke her soul fell into the well
her being sank into the dank water
gone now suppressed by the slimy green walls
nobody heard her Spiritual calls!
A different young woman went back inside
but to the family within
it was their beloved sister and daughter
the evil entity was reborn
new energy rejuvenating the decayed shell
the lid sealed the well!
