It’s Only Me

If you happen to feel a brief

Draft on your skin on a calm day

It’s only me…

When you’re walking and a drop

Of moisture touches you

On a dry day

It’s merely a tear

Falling from my eye…

If the sunshine turns to

Darkness for a moment

Don’t be alarmed, it’s only my

Shadow …

Passing through the day…

If the night is darker than

Normal…

I’m hiding in the density of the

Blackest corner of the night

When you close the

Drapes before going to

Bed…

And get a glimpse of me…

I’ll give you a wave

Good night…

Or…

Good bye…

I’ll smile and you’ll

Shriek…
