I hear it
I hear its angry growls
I don't know where it is
But it's on the prowl
I hear it on my doorstep
I hear it on my walks
All it does is make incoherent sounds
It never does talk
I try to walk away but it somehow follows
Never leaving my side
I start to run
But it has already won
There is nowhere left to hide
I went inside my house
And locked my front door
Little did I know
It always came for more
I'm laying in my bed now
And the floor has begun to creak
I'm getting curious now
It's getting harder to resist a peek
I feel its breathing
Its walking to my bed
It's screaming in my ears now
And I'm turning brain dead
It won't stop
It just gets louder and louder
Its nails are scratching at my skin
A bloody encounter
I'm so tired of this
It's fucking with my head
I finally opened my eyes
And all I saw was red
Blood was all over my walls
All over my floor
And I realized it had lead
To my closet door
I walked through the blood
And went to it filled with fear
I finally pulled it open
And the word 'Kill' was all I could hear
It was spelled on the wall
Right next to my parents
Who I realized had their throats slit
That was apparent
I didn't particularly mind
For I had planned this day
Ever since my parents
Had shunned me because I was gay
It smiled
And soon I did too
While I smiled I realized
I would have to start anew
It was the one who helped me
Who trained me to follow you home
Then scream in your ears and lure you when you are all alone
Can't you hear my footsteps?
Or feel my piercing gaze?
Maybe if you wouldn't have read this poem
I would have stayed away
It is now nighttime
And I'm walking to your bed
I know that you are awake
Ignore me and you'll be dead
You didn't listen
And now you must pay
So let's string up your parents nice and tight
From the noose and let them sway...
