Stuff I Wrote

The Man In the Window

He sits at the window

Looking away

Staring into the nightfall and day

The man in the window keeps staring at me

With ominous eyes and a grin no one needs

All alone in his cold barren house

He opens the windows and just looks out

"The shadows behind him won't back off" I say

But nobody listens they say he's just fake

Even as I hide under my covers all day

His gaze never leaves and

           Im

                      Stuck

                                     Here

                                                       All day

Nobody will help me he won't go away

I guess I'll just go cry my sorrows away
