Listen To My Story They Whisper

it's dark in here not a muscle moved i've been warned I focus on the walls shadows passing by sending out their calls scared as a fish i'm next on the list lots have done wrong cause that list is way long the shadows create shapes telling their stories I listen because my life could be at sake a reason or a purpose please! open all curtains but I want to listen to all words the rephrase because they listen to all words I say to my self being hopes aren't high hope I stay alive "don't be scared" they whisper "just listen to my story and your life wouldn't be ending listen to my story" they whispered to my ear the crack of dawn is when they reappear "listen to my story or i'll be back" i'm warned once again they're testing me whispering and staring at the edge of my bed scared as a fish i'm next on the list lots have done wrong cause that is way long i listen evey night shadow after shadow keeps passing by more sad the stories get "listen to my story" they whisper they won't leave until their story is told they won't leave until you get old the words they say widen my eyes opens my heart to an unseen life I hope you understand my story I whisper to you if you have not yet realized what i've said I'll be sure to come back again "listen to my story" I whisper
