Who's That With You?

It’s with you right now. In the room with you. Watching everything you do. Everything you say. Shhhhhhh Do you think you can hide from it? Pretend it’s not there, hiding in the dark - Look around and you’ll see nothing, But it knows you are watching.. Wake up fool! It speaks to you now - Listen very, very closely It speaks in whispers Shhhhhhh Be so very silent and still It knows what you think of this poem, This writer Your fear. It knows that secret you’ve been hiding. It knows the whole thing. It was with you. It will reveal you the first chance it gets. Even now, it knows that you are looking for it. In fact, It wants you to find it. Don’t be scared. Once you uncover it, You’re free of it. Shhhhhhh Listen… can you hear it?
