Without warning,
You are there.
Staring.
All eyes trained on me;
Your path direct and foreboding.
My heart catches in my throat.
I can no longer breathe.
You have trapped me in your malicious aura
I will you to disappear,
And yet you approach without regard
Your desire, your only concern
That you cannot read
The trepidation in my eyes.
I can't bring myself to look away,
For fear that you will catch me by surprise
That you would dare
Touch me with your ill intentions
To invade my space
To whisper
You are beautiful, Smile for me
My skin crawls
Bile threatens to escape my constricted throat
As I fight the trembling of every muscle
In this body, you gaze upon hungrily
Greedily
Your existence
Terrorizes my every cell
And with these shoes
I work up the courage
To kill you
If only in my mind
As I walk away
And hope you don't follow.
