Freeform Friday: "Just A Candle"

 In the night

With the candlelight
I look out the window
Into the yard
Nothing new

Into bed
Warm in the covers
Lightning strikes
Thunder claps
Rain pours

I wake up the next day
The rain has stopped
Trees still drip
The yard is wet
Debri still falls

A cold breeze drifts
Through an broken window
I walk to my parents room
The door is locked
Can't get it open

The next night
Still no sign
I try the lock again
The door opens
And I scream

In the night
Just a candle
Alone but crowded
I stay in this room

Forever
