Every morning when I wake there she is through the window, Standing with her eyes open wide, Not moving or walking, standing still in a gown, In the cold that’s the morning outside, In the winter with ice, with wind and with chill, She stares, her eyes I can see, Her eyes are jet black on her face that is white, Her eyes that force me to re- Define my own world, my moment of now, Check on the things that I feel, Check on how much she’s forcing my Me, To figure out what’s even real. Every morning when I wake I see her outside, And I know she stands in my mind, Because when I wake I remember each day, That I can’t see because I am blind. For Silent One's Stalker contest, written 8th November 2017. Awarded 2nd place
