Watching Game

Watching Game

A Poem by Umar Aziz

You are watching me 
and I am watching you. 
This may feel unreal but I am very real. 
With eyes of disbelief and silence in your heart.
Watch a nightmare unfold.
As you are watching me 
I am also watching you.

We never know who may be watching us as we chat absently away at our phones or online. Are their motives innocent or sinister? This poem is very much to that point. I think it sounds like an uneasy warning to those who think they are hidden behind firewalls and security systems. Are we ever really alone in this high tech world? Is anyone ever really "safe"?

Quite a menacing write, Umar. The duality of the watching makes me wonder just what will happen next. Real or imagined, you project a strong degree of tension with your poem. A gripping read.

Thank you for reading and comment. I am trying to improve because my wife is saying she is a creativ.. read more
This one sounds a bit creepy. Like stalker creepy. I do like the way you began and ended with the same lines like a bookend though. I can also see a bit of internal rhyme.

Well done.
