A dark night all alone,
You wander the streets
And have an unseen enemy.
Soft foot steps
Can be heard
When you cease to move.
You turn around to see
Who is the one following.
The noise of the feet
Hitting the ground
Get louder as it comes closer.
Nothing is in your sight;
No one is there.
You pick up speed
As you begin to run.
Your stranger
Can be heard
Running after you.
You turn a corner
And a dead end
Stares back at you.
He is coming closer
And closer...
There is no where to run
As your heart beat picks up.
A low whisper, that almost
Could be mistaken for the wind,
Lingers in your ears.
'Remember me.'
It speaks.
A cold chill
Fills your body.
You now know
That your unseen foe
Is just the
Ghost Of Yesterday.
