Do you want to know something odd?
As I'm sitting here in the dark...
I've become rather good with words,
Though I have nothing of which to make my mark.

You see, even as a Cat,
With my glowing eyes and all.
I can't make out a thing,
Not a disgusting thing at all.

Its been awhile actually,
Without a glimpse of light.
I can hear everything quite clearly,
But nothing from my sight.

I hear him sometimes,
Making murmurs in the black.
I can hear him laughing,
Making shivers in my back.

Food comes of course.
Not much, But a little.
It kind of just appears...
Sort of like a riddle.

I ask myself a lot,
Now how can they see?
Why am I the only one,
Who can't see of what I flee?

I'm constantly praying,
To a God in which I've never seen.
"Please keep my Mandy safe,
For she is the honored Queen.

But not for only that reason,
I mean, royalty she seems to be,
But because...I love her...
Of that, anyone can see.

So keep her safe, dear God.
Keep her safe for me.
And if not for me, for her.
Keep her safe from he."

I sit here in the dark,
Praying time away.
Nothing else to do,
I can only stay.

So I sit.
And I wait.
For Kevin.
Who I hate.
