go away

I can hear it on your breath, that sound that creeps beneath my skin.

You stand outside my window, always wanting to come in.

Lurking on the pane, your an apparition and a stain.

I try to close my shades but still your shadow seeps in with the light of the moon, the sun of the day.

Two words I repeat and say over and over, Go Away!  Go Away!

I swear I need to burn this house down to get you to go.

I just don't want to hear you out there anymore.
