I creep down the stairs and slip ominously into the room
Unnoticed, all I wanted was to bring you a smile of happiness
To make you feel precious, loved and special
Leave behind the blinding fog and the weighted gloom

Fear only consumes an ego left vulnerable, damaged and broken
It lives and breathes off the unconscious mind
Hoping you remain desensitised , empty and numb
Longing for you to stay silent, mute and unspoken
