I've seen him before
He haunts my dreams
When I'm scared
I close my eyes and he's there
Whitest skin and blackened eyes
I'm walking at night
On streets I don't know
No traffic
Just people
A dog appears
Invades my space
I'm suddenly nervous
I keep walking
Someone walks by
I'm slammed against the wall
It's him
His hand at my throat
We've been here before he says
I close my eyes
I'm awake
But he's still there
At the corner of my eye
I've seen him before
He haunts my dreams
When I'm scared
I close my eyes and he's there

Cool. It's a very surreal piece to me this because I don't even have to read it to see it vividly.
