Never Alone

By: Red Ghost

The house is still

But she is not alone

Only one living soul dares to move

But she is not alone

So silent, the silence could kill

To the naked eye she is alone

Nobody is present in the home

But she is not alone

One girl walks the house

But she is not alone

Every glance sent over her shoulder is directed at something

She is not alone

It doesn’t stop her wondering

Is anybody home? Is she alone?

Chills pulse through her bones

She is not alone

She can hear her own hearts frantic beating

She now knows she is not alone

Unseen eyes observe, waiting

They watch

From every shadow they keep silent vigil

They watch

Are they there to protect her?

They watch

Or do they have different intentions?

She begins to settle into the night

But she is not alone

She holds a pillow close

She is not alone

No matter what she does or where she goes

She is not alone

(This poem is inspired by the home I have lived in for 15 years and I belive to be haunted no matter what anybody else says)
