Scared Fish

I know I`m alone. I have to be alone.
Crackle. It goes late at night.

I know I`m alone. I know I mustn`t be alone.

Right there!
But.
It stops when it knows I`m looking.
It wants me to fear it.
Amused.
Wants to me to do its bidding.

For in this world I have no control.
The moonlight is my enemy
It rules over me.
I know it’s not friendly.
It loves the hunt.

Crackle. It goes late at night.
It likes to keep me trapped.
Giving in to my childhood fear.
A sense of dread it must feed on.
A feeling of hate.

Usually, I can see it coming.
The sound before the sight.
I can wake before it lures me in.
Crackle. It goes late at night.

I`m Scared.

The Fish of the Sea.
