Lurking in the Shadows

M.E.M.

I’m not crazy!

I can see them… lurking…

There!

No? 

You never see them.

 

You think I’m seeing things

Don’t you?

But I’m NOT! Okay, I’m not

If you would just listen to me, okay


If you would just hear me

and listen to the words I’m speaking

They are here.

They are… everywhere

Why won’t you listen?

    Few people take the time to listen too busy in their own heads.

    Things unseen. They can be so real.
