The monster
Fear inside these
black dead eyes
cold as a winter night
pale skin
wore thin
sick and sadistic
unrealistic
flesh eating monster
in the closet
savors your flesh
slurping your blood
and brain
and grins as it devours your heart
and looks to me
as I turn
I feel my blood flow
beginning to fade
as I am devoured
pull me up
as I drown beneath
its remorseless teeth
black dead eyes
cold as a winter night
pale skin
wore thin
sick and sadistic
unrealistic
flesh eating monster
in the closet
savors your flesh
slurping your blood
and brain
and grins as it devours your heart
and looks to me
as I turn
I feel my blood flow
beginning to fade
as I am devoured
pull me up
as I drown beneath
its remorseless teeth

Very nice idea. The monster hiding in the closet is a fear for every child. I thought it was well written. However I think it could benefit from a bit more description. Perhaps describing the way the monster looks or other kind of imagery such as drool oozing down the monsters long teeth.
