There’s a lull in the air, a calm before the storm Like, something is peeping around the corner a boogeyman ready to pounce The heart is settled, but there’s white noise Something is yet to happen My steps are heavy, my breaths are slow The languid strides have viscous blood flowing through the veins The midsummer sun stares deep, punching holes through my flesh I am not sure of what to expect Something is yet to happen A tsunami rises in the distance, the froth brews, the venom spews A monstrous fatality that’s unseen sits patiently and waits Life moves in a dazzling nonchalant flash While I keep treading, unbeknownst; I feel it in my bones Something is yet to happen

Boogeyman
There’s a lull in the air, a calm before the storm Like, something is peeping around the corner a boogeyman ready to pounce The heart is settled, but there’s white noise Something is yet to happen My steps are heavy, my breaths are slow The languid strides have viscous blood flowing through the veins The midsummer sun stares deep, punching holes through my flesh I am not sure of what to expect Something is yet to happen A tsunami rises in the distance, the froth brews, the venom spews A monstrous fatality that’s unseen sits patiently and waits Life moves in a dazzling nonchalant flash While I keep treading, unbeknownst; I feel it in my bones Something is yet to happen
