You run

You hide

hide your scars

hide your fear

fear of darkness

fear of unknown

unknown noises

unknown shadows

shadows in moonlight

shadows chasing you

you scream out

you want someone

someone is coming

someone is close

close but unseen

close you can feel

feel their presence

feel their breath

breath that smells

breath that whispers

whispers in your ear

whispers to run

run where

run anywhere

anywhere quick

anywhere escape

escape the demons

escape the night

night is ending

night turns to day

day is your escape

day is your life

life that's happy

life of laughter

laughter from you

laughter for you

you forget

you act

act normal

act like others

others who don't know

others who don't see

see what happens

see the shadows

shadows only for you

shadows of them

them the killers

them in the night

night

killers
