It is mysterious
very confusing
unpredictable
unable to delineate
impossible to attribute
clueless and alarming
the happening is frightful
how many adjectives
how much of feelings
I could add and express
the “mystery” makes me shudder
I could find no reason
the night when it took place
signals a shudder and a panic
the sound like thunder
emanated from nowhere
the articles on the table
fell down one by one
the ground seemed to quiver
could hear the footsteps
they came so close
could not see the figure
the door bell rang incessantly
I sat there dazed without a move
my eyes still and my hands frozen
a terrible, horrendous event
turned me into a stone
motionless and terrified
after a few minutes pause
the noise ceased, the ground was firm
the articles got back in place
normalcy resumed.
a”mystery” has come to an end
knew not from where it started
why did it start?
and how did it end up?
unravelled till this day.
