Haunted

The ghost of you haunts me.
There is a shadow that is shaped like you,
And it is making me curl up in a ball in the corner of
my room.
I feel the goosebumps cover my body.
I see your figure. Why do you haunt me?
You have hurt me enough.
I’m already scared of you.
Why don’t you just give up?
I’m hiding. I feel your cold
Spirit rise above me.
You’re scaring me.
This is when I give up,
Just fall on the floor and wait for you to leave and fall asleep.
Because when I awaken again, you will be gone
And I will be left waiting and wondering
when you will show your face here again.
