HAUNT

I felt you
Watching over me
I'll see you in time
That's a guarantee
But I'm still scared
Of coming face-to-face
With where I'll be
I'll haunt this place

Like I'm bound and tethered
Motivation weathered
I stand here in place
Yet expect this change
Anxiety prone
Fear of forever being alone
I'm a walking paradox
And a toxic man who just talks
And I didn't answer when I heard her knock
I heard her call to me
And I felt the weight of hеr foot as she walked
Her hеartbeat inside my head
The way her eyes moved through me
A presence not quite alive
Not quite dead

Her voice lingers here
Echoing through the halls
It permeates through the air
And it covers the walls
It leaves me weightless and sick
I'm nothing and to that I shall return
Broken breeds broken
I don't think there are enough chances in the world for me to learn

I'm shouting but for how long
Screaming for only the air hear
I hear my pulse radiate through my ears
And I'll never quite be alive
Because I'm made up of fear
I've let it decide how to live my life
I made my enemies a bed here
