Paranoia

A Poem by lia

A women is going insane. She believes that a man is stalking her trying to kill her in her sleep. Her family and friends tell its not real but she dosent take heed to them. She is yet to see him.

I hear him coming.
He is near.
He is always there.
Watching and staring.
He is ALWAYS behind me.
But I am yet to see,
Him lurking in the shadows.
Crouching low in wait for me to sleep
I keep my eyes open because he WILL come and take there.
When I look he is never there.
NEVER HERE NOR THERE.
They lie they wish to see me die!
They push for me to sleep.
Tell me to rest.
To lay down.
"Dont make a sound its O.K" they say giving false hope.
I dont,
I wont,
I cant lay down.
For he is coming,
I can hear him,
He is near,
He is is always there.
Watching and staring.
In wait for me to sleep,
To not make a peep.
