Ghost in the Crowd

I could swear I saw you Yesterday in a crowd But you were gone

Stalked

Rose petals scatter like blood splatter She swallows down the bile As the sickly sweet scent reaches her

Like a whirlwind of fire The leaves blow by Coating the world

Within seconds of finishing, he couldn't quite remember

Leaves fall in disarray A chill slowly creeps in Settling subtly into the air

For us to work some Sacrifices must be made And agreed upon

Hunted like prey in the night She walks briskly to her car Afraid of every shadow

A scream cuts out The silence stands witness

Blood drips in the sink My hand will never be clean

The voices in my head Howl for attention They will not be silenced
