I Must Admit

I must admit

That I am scared

Of the eerie silence

That echoes in the darkness

Of my house

Does it matter

That my heart races

More with the silence

Making the darkness seem bigger

In my mind

I must admit

That I see things

That leaves me unsure

If I actually saw anything at all

In the night

Shadows will crawl

Along the walls 

Keeping with me

As I feel my way around

In the dark

I must admit

That I'm paranoid

Of what I "don't" see

And things I "don't" hear

All around me

Is it imagination

That my mind created

As some sick, perverted joke

Or is it real

When shadows crawl

Author's Note

I wrote this out in my mind but, however, it didn't really come out the way I expected it to so I'm calling this a rough draft until I find a way to reword it. Let me know what you think!

The mind can play terrible tricks on us. If we work ourselves up enough, shadows are waiting for us around each corner of our home.

So I think everyone who takes a while to far asleep at night has felt this. Me included. This is very unsettling seeing as how I am about to go to bed but hey! That means you did a good job.
This is wonderful!
