Your identity is unkown It scares me Can I trust you? Can you leave me alone? Why do you terrorize me? Why do you haunt me in my dreams? Moving things without permission Whispering in my ears Every sound feels off My heart is raising Can’t breath normal Can’t sleep I can feel your presence In this empty room In this cold room You are looking at me I’m not sure why Are you alone? Do you want a friend? I’m scared of you I’m not sure if I can trust you Maybe you are a dark spirit That wants to possess me And wants to terrorize others Or maybe you are friendly That needs me Through all the darkness In the night Or maybe you are my pet That I loved so much That was loyal me That needs me back You still scare me though I’m scared of the unknown I’m scared of ghosts I’m scared of you I hear another sound It’s another whisper I quickly turn on music To get things of my mind It works a little bit I couldn’t understand the whispers Maybe it was all in my head No, I’m not crazy! Leave me alone! Why don’t you disappear?! I’m scared! ENOUGH!
Meaning
This poem is about my fear of ghosts. I wrote this poem at night when I thought I saw a shadow. It freaked me out so much, that I had to write it down. There is no metaphor in this poem, but if you find one let me know 😉
I’m also very fascinated by ghosts. I watched a lot of ghost hunting videos on YouTube where someone plays with an OUIJA board. Why? I don’t know :p I will never play with one of those, because they freak me out. I also don’t like horror movies because of that fear. I know that there are a lot of types of horror, but I dislike every type.
What do you think about ghosts? Do you believe in them? Or, are they just urban myths? Let me know in the comment below. See you all next week!
Strangers are like your poem… but I’m not sure if ghosts are real. I like your poem. @atteancanoe
