You don’t think I see you
lurking in the shadows,
watching,
waiting.
I remember what you did.
Remember with vivid clarity
every
agonizing
detail.
Your cold eyes
haunt my dreams,
my waking hours.
Go back to the shadows
where creatures of darkness
dwell.
Go back
and haunt me no more.

This is something that came to me yesterday while driving. I was listening to Phil Collin’s In The Air Tonight. I let it simmer overnight and began writing this morning with that song playing in the background. The poem seems to have taken on a life of its own. This is only the beginning. There is more.
Much more.
I’m really liking this.. I can hardly wait to see what else you come up with..
I have a few more parts done, but the story itself is not quite finished yet. I have done this one other time. A poem with a story arc.
I’d really like to see the finished piece when you’re ready😊
If I did it right, and that is a big IF, part 2 should post at noon my time.
I’ll be looking for it.. Happily!!
