Silhouette Shivers

It is something that I can no longer hide...

The visions of what happened that night still feel so alive

All the while I can still make out the shadow of your face

And at this very moment in time I can imagine myself exactly in that place

The darkness overhead still feels me with dread

Every part of my body knew that I immediately should have fled!

I wanted to run, I wanted to hide

I tried to scream out. I screamed out until I cried

Just as if a wolf chases its prey

Somehow your overpowering strength felt the very same way

The silhouette of your figure still gives my body shivers

And the pain that I felt, this thought often triggers

I gave up when you did your worst

It was as though you were a predator and for my blood you had thirst

I fought that night with all of my might

But you had me at my weakest point all to tight

One last trick. One last try

As the life blead out of me and my spirit started to die,

I looked at you dead in the eyes...

I wanted you to remember that everything you did was only lies

"Remember what you took from me"

"Just think of all the things that you will never be!"

I can still remember the exact look that you gave in return

It was a look that to this day still makes my stomach churn

It was the look of satisfaction that was glued to your face

It was as if I was the prey and you had finished your chase

And that very night you disappeared without a trace...

-------------------------------------------------------

In the fog of my thoughts, I can still see you cower

It's the fear of what I might say or what comes after

But if this is something that I can no longer hide,

Then why is it that every time I go to speak it's as though my words have
somehow died....
