He awoke gasping for a breath of air
petrified at his dream
in the darkness suddenly felt panic
flicking on the light
calmed down but stayed perturbed
being very disturbed!
What had he dreamt of still unclear
why this growing panic
got up his chest tight was freezing
silly unable to understand
it was a nightmare it had gone now
to his own doubt would not bow!
Had a coffee to reflect and chill
even on the kitchen stool
had the urge to escape and run
but he was on his own here
in the top floor luxury apartment
his mind about to fragment!
In the dim light and rare silence
heard a noise close by
not feasible just himself was here
remembered the image
that had made him wake in dismay
she stood in the doorway!
He turned had it been a premonition
that same cold dead stare
a long bloody nightgown knife gripped
before he could make a gasp
his eyes saw the blade thrust down
in his own blood would drown!
This was the third time they were called
it was becoming a regular visit
each time a young male was found dead
yet no marks on the bodies
on autopsy heart attacks the conclusion
which caused confusion!
No history was given to the new tenant
as he happily moved in
very content at the very reasonable rent
would he to die within?
