I will never be safe again.
I know they are out to get me.
They’ll come back for vengeance for what I did,
I fought and I killed to save those I loved,
But they’ll still come back for me.
I’m sure they already know where I live,
Where I work,
Where I grew up and where I graduated.
They probably know where I had my first kiss,
My first dance,
My first fight.
They know it all.
They know all of my movements,
They are prowling in the shadows-
Ready to pounce at any second.
They are the apex predator and I am their prey.
They are the hunters and I am the sitting duck-
No idea where they’ll come from,
When they’ll attack,
How they’ll attack.
I just sit.
Waiting for my inevitable demise.
For no-one can walk away from that place without being haunted by the ghosts’ lives that lay on their hands.
