Do you hear me in the night?
Not in the obvious places, but just out of sight.
I always see you, even in the moments you think you're alone.
When you physically feel my presence, you get chilled to the bone.
You sit in your bed, when you think a person in the corner just moved
That's me, and my physicall existence is still not proved.
You close your eyes, hoping that I'd "Just go away!"
What you don't know is, I'm here to stay!
You hear floorboards creak, as I walk towards you, my movements as quick as a jerk.
I reach my dark, translucent hand out, and my mouth forms a smirk.
It would feel so nice, grabbing your throat, and clenching my hand.
My sinewy fingers wrap around your neck, and clench like a rubber band.
The futile attempts from you to draw another breath, are cute.
When your mom comes in, turns on the light, and I become mute.
My body is physically gone, like a punchline told in deadpan.
I disapeared, but one day I'll come back, for I am a Shadow Man
