Stranger

I awaken from my bed,

Melodic singing in my head.

“Darling wont you come with me,

Ill make you feel truly free.”

Sickening shivers down my spine,

Tell myself that I’ll be fine.

“Darling I know that you can hear,

There is no need for you to fear.”

And despite my reluctant heart,

I feel the need to play the part.

Every word it draws me closer,

To my anonymous composer.

His voice growing louder still.


“Darling how I love you so,

Its time for me to take you home,”

As I take every stair in stride,

A sense of calm enters my mind.

On the roof I see his face,

With shining eyes he moved with grace.

“Darling come now, take my hand,

Ill take you to a better land…”

My mind made up, It was already done,

My hand in his couldnt be undone.

I tried to pull, I tried to fight,

I pulled at him with all my might.


“Dont go now, youre much too late,

Come here and accept your fate”

His hold on me grows tighter still,

Leaving behind an eerie thrill;

That I cannot explain.

All I know is with every touch,

He takes away my pain.

“Come now Darling, be polite…

This fatal flaw you cant rewrite..”

And in spite of his chilling tone,

When I see his smile it feels like home.

My vision fading, growing dark,

Us both dissappearing with a spark.
