Stay where
You are
And hold
Them tight
For there
Be creatures
That stalk
The night
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
Stay where
You are
And hold
Them tight
For there
Be creatures
That stalk
The night
4am
And my demons
Want revenge
Again
Waking
in the
dead
of night
Trying
to choke
back my
tears
It doesn’t
matter
how much
I fight
I cannot
sleep
through
my fears
I sense you,
stalking me from behind.
I won’t let you win.
I see you,
prowling outside my window.
I won’t let you in.
I hear you,
scratching at my door.
I won’t let you win.
I feel you,
gnawing on my bones.
How did you get in?
