Always There
Black silhouette
Evil eyes
Grinning
As if satisfied
Elongated nails
A finger coaxing me
To go near
It surrounds
Desolation sets in
Finally taking
Over me,
My home
Always there
Always taunting
Give me peace
From this horror
The nonstop
Stalking
It knows
My innermost secrets
From then until now
Can't escape
What could I do
To be free?
