Right Beside You

I'm going to leave you in such fear
You will never close your eyes again
Terrorized, traumatized
Weak
Don't speak
I am always close
In a way you never wanted
To be inches from your end
Every second of every day
This thought will fuel your
Paranoia insomnia schizophrenia
Darkness falls
Like clockwork
Shades down, doors locked
Windows bolted
Crouch under the covers
Eyes wide open
Waiting for my shadow
To pass under the crack of your door
But I'll be right beside you
