The shadow that haunts me
Day and night
Always watching me
By my side.
Since I was small
In my dreams
It stood tall
And made me scream.
Standing at my bedside
Every single night
The feeling has never died
Even when I turn on the light.
Watching me sleep
Waiting so very patiently
Without a peep
Giving me nightmares so vividly.
It's always there
Waiting for something
Just like air
Feels like nothing.
Haunting me forever
Day and night
Showing up whenever
I'm never out of sight.
