The eyes in the dark,
Watch me as I smoke,
They continue to torture me,
Like a perverted kind of joke,
They stare at me,
And I stare right back,
A flicker of light,
I ask, is it just a cat?
My mind starts going mad,
With all different scenarios,
I think I hear it howl,
As the wind blows,
As I focus,
And focus some more,
It gets brighter and brighter,
But it’s in a different place than before,
I finish my fag,
But my eyes are now tranced,
I blink several times,
But it’s gone in a glance,
I question myself,
Myself questions me,
And in my head I ask,
What the hell did I just see?
Was it a wolf?
Or something unknown,
If only there was daylight,
Its appearance could be shown,
Fear,
Still lingering my mind,
I am in the witching hour,
I shouldn’t be awake at this time,
Was it a spirit?
Or a wondering ghoul,
Or just a reflection,
Making me look a fool,
Whatever it was,
Shining so bright,
I know for certain,
I won’t sleep well tonight.
