Soul

Teddy.15

 

She hovers over me

when I sleep, when I wake

she follows me to the supermarket 

and when I'm in the library 

I can feel her eerie shadow

I can feel and see her aura 

It's dark it's cold it's truly cold 

when the light comes in through the curtains

I can hear her screams 

I place my palms over my ears

but her voice, her voice is still here

and the cold, shivering I am.

    Eerie and haunting this poem speaks with darkness and a sense of horror. The nonspecific nature of the presence enhances the feeling. Very nicely done

              Emotive words Teddy but you will emerge into the light and find that warmth.
