Deathly Screams
In the dark
I lie alone
With shadows creeping
Along the walls
The wind softly blows
My curtains aside
And a faint scream
Comes inside
It echoes
Down the halls
I lift up
Out of my bed
And look around
My dark room
With the light
Shining in
And slowly creeping
Across my walls
I blink
But their ain't
Nothing in sight
I lay down
And close my eyes
But those screams
Still echo
In my head
So loud
I lie alone
With shadows creeping
Along the walls
The wind softly blows
My curtains aside
And a faint scream
Comes inside
It echoes
Down the halls
I lift up
Out of my bed
And look around
My dark room
With the light
Shining in
And slowly creeping
Across my walls
I blink
But their ain't
Nothing in sight
I lay down
And close my eyes
But those screams
Still echo
In my head
So loud

It's not what's outside the bed, but what's in your head? Schizoid screams are terrifying. Fine work!
