I got goose bumps while reading this... truly thrilling! ! !

Go and sleep peacefully, I won't harm you' I heard the ghost's words Good-night my dear little one the ceteris paribus of the poem......10 again. Do read some of mine.It was goof reading yours.

Hello Dulakshi - This is a scary poem - but with a lovely twist. We are all vulnerable in the night Angel and we do get visitations - are they in our Head or are they from anaother dimension - only you can decide. We can be decieved by appearances and sometimes something scary turns out to be nice. We can also be decieved by words - and smooth words can win a beautiful young lady. In poetry we all use words - my words to you are of Poetic encouragement and Poetic appreciation. Think of beautfiul things (and beautiful people) and pray to the Lord - before you go to sleep and your dreams will be full of love and beauty. 'Go to sleep - my child - sleep peacefully - don't be scared'. Thanks for sharing - Love you in Poetry - JOHN

Then.... I went to sleep When I woke up Nobody there was? Was it a dream or My own fancy? I was dumbfounded.....puzzled! romantic with dramatic touches.. one can realize and even visualize what you said here...loved it..awesome and interesting enough 10/10

beautiful poem.. you delighted me.. these ghostly fantasies haunted my childhood too..very badly indeed.. and sometimes even now.. i am really delighted and am feeling nostalgic.. God bless you.. regards prashant

nice contrast between the monster and being confused. short, but subtle
