I can feel it lurking
Hands waiting to grab me
They say I’m paranoid
But they know it exists
Too scared to heed
Every time I hold her
I say a silent prayer
Let them be the shields
But how does it help
When what lurks is within
It’s gonna come for us all
Just like how it got him
Wailing crawling bleeding
Receding to the bones
A hug, a kiss and then gone
Let us be, let me be
Leave us to wind down
The only way we can
The vices are here to stay
But then who does not
She looks right in me
And holds my hand
She beams up a smile
And brings me back
Now I’m here, I’m here
