Stalker
Stalker
In the middle of the night
When the dead come knocking
No ones around to hear
Their seductive calling
Pulling on my tears
Memories dull the mind
Blurry visions of romance
Play behind sleep deprived eyes
Stalker walking
Outside my dreams
Creeping ever closer
Sight unseen
Is this a nightmare
Is this some fantasy
Can I wake to daylight?
Without you haunting me
I try to let go,
To say goodbye
But your image stays fixed
Behind closed eyes
Ghost stalker invading
When I need rest the most
I am drowning in memory
Sipping poison of a ghost
Stalker walking
Outside my dreams
Creeping ever closer
Sight unseen
Is this a nightmare
(Will you let me go?)
Is this some fantasy
(Will you let me go?)
Can I wake to daylight?
(Will you let me go?)
Without you haunting me
(Will I let you go?)
Stalker walking
Softly knocking
Let me in…
Let me in…
Let me in…

Hello Being Me, Thank you so much Glad you enjoyed my prose.
Blessings, Rebecca
It is within the repetition, tone, and subtle poetic rhythms that you have created something VERY haunting here.....and not just haunting but profoundly memorable and BEAUTIFULLY poetic my friend......For the same reasons that an Edgar Allen Poe piece has its merit.....so does this marvelous write stand boldly on that same playing field!!
