They loved me bright, they loved me wild, until my light was not their style.

I locked the doors, I shut them tight, I hid away, I killed the light.
But through the cracks, so thin, so wide, I heard him laugh, "You cannot hide."

The Hole in the Sky

A crack above, so thin, so wide, It calls, it pulls, it yawns inside.
The sky is wrong, the stars aren’t true—And now it’s reaching down for you.

The Shadow in the Mirror

I move, it moves, it follows tight, It shifts, it sways, just out of sight.
But when I left, it stayed behind, And in its place, I’m trapped inside

Not Alone

I hear the steps, the distant sound, Yet when I turn, there’s nothing found.
But something’s breathing, soft and slow—It knows my name. It lets me know.

Ghosted

They vanished fast, left me behind, A living ghost, just not the kind-
That haunts the halls and slams the door, but one that no one sees anymore.

The Funeral Was Full

They swore they’d care, they swore they’d stay, then loved me most, once I decayed.
