Is that howling?
Or is it a cat?
Maybe a child crying?

I don't know what it is
It scares me a little thinking it is a child
What are they doing out so late?
It's 1 am.

If it's a cat I'm not scared
Let it live and do whatever it wants
It'll be sad knowing it's out there
But what can I do?

I thought it was a dog howling at first
I wasn't scared
Then it became a longer and more cat like

My mind is running and thinking of answers

I'm scaring myself now
My thoughts are all over the place
I'm not the type of person to deny that they are scared
Not anymore atleast

It was by my window
But now the sound is gone
How crazy it happened to be by my window?

I don't mean it to sound like I'm laughing about it

I am scared
But maybe it was the wind?

I don't know
I never will know

I am scared
I won't lie
What if it's something other than a cat, dog, child or wind

That's what scares me
I am scared

My own thoughts are the thing that scares me the most in these moments

This actually happened just now. I was more scared before, not so much now.
