The Monster That is Me

8 2 3
                                    

A whisper in the dark stirs me in my sleep.

I wake, look around, and rise to my feet.

I hear my name being called to me

From outside the window,

Down by the water.


I follow the voice to the lake.

I take a few careful steps in.

I look down with a frown,

And see my own face,

Looking up at me with a grin.
