Ghosts

I hear your laughter through the walls. I hear you hiss to try and make me small. I see your shadows in dark light. I feel your movements in the night. I sense your presence with its cold. I sit in the darkness waiting, waiting for your hold. I close my eyes when you stand over me. I won’t give you the prize you want of me.
