Secrets are Safe [700,000 Subs Contest] – Short Horror Story

A small child giggled

A woman whistled

A man was silent

Wind shrieked its banshee wail

Full moon cowered behind clouds

Shadows danced without owners

Cats fell off walls

There are no lights on in the house

No one there has need to see

Curtains fluttered without a breeze

Windows opened. A door closed.

The house took me in

It knew I was coming

It knew I wouldn’t leave

A small child giggled

I knew that child

My son

A woman whistled

She sounded happy

For a little while

A man was silent

His tongue

Turned to stone

This same house

Welcomed me

For I belonged.
