I remember when the worst thing around were these shadows that dance on my wall Open windows served as music, for the wind’s rhythm drove specters to sway Standing in the doorway, with the lazy hum of bees outside, my eyes panicked That was years ago The shadows were just glimpses of the realms that resided in my head From the cavernous depths sprang a Panther colored like silky ink It prowls both my mind and waking reality with an equal vibe of eeriness Recently, a quiet day of class turned gruesome within seconds Caught up in a cold fit of hatred, I saw my classmates’ bodies slumped over Their blood formed a massive pool reeking of crimson I saw that **** cat stare at me with liquid eyes while it lapped it up A few blinks later, Geometry class was back to its usual dull droning I honestly don’t know what to believe anymore I’m not crazy, I’m not crazy, I’m not ******* crazy! Or am I? Every time things go back to normal, there’s a tinge of sickliness in my gut The grim expectation of more horror and gore Every time things go back to normal, I think of buzzing bugs and melodic wind I think of phantomous felines and shadows waltzing across my wal
