There’s a monster in my closet <br />And I’m afraid for my life... <br />He watches me through the cracks of the shimmering moonlight. <br />Red eyes like mine, <br />Desensitise to <br />Numb my fear <br />Frozen inside <br />My heart beats <br />Echoed footsteps, <br />Lodged in time... <br /> <br />An uneasy feeling, <br />Subsides me <br />And I fall blind. <br /> Images draw <br />Closer to me <br />Helplessly I feel <br /> Claustrophobic the more he learns about me... <br /> <br />I don’t know how long <br />He has been here, <br />All I know is that <br />He is here now... <br />Sometimes I can hear him <br />Scream to the others <br />They flock around searching for me... <br />Perhaps I’m invisible or merely to distant from their world to see me... <br /> <br />There’s a monster in my closet <br />And I’m afraid... <br />That he will catch me, <br />With his disgusting human hands.<br /><br />Empath In flames<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/there-s-a-monster-in-my-closet/
