Haunt.

I hear the creaking of their steps along the hallway floor
I know the squealing of the hinges on every single door
I see the skeletons at night when I'm alone
Dancing to the tick of the mantelpiece clock, the ringing of the phone
A sad and mournful dance they dance,
In pairs, one by one, spinning circles in the dust upon the floor
And while, at first, it's a rather terrifying sight
Their creaking bones, their evil smiles
I've come to find I enjoy their dances night after night
I do not fear their eyeless gaze
Nor the dusty bones
Nay, what I fear the most of all
Is the day I return home
