If you were to look closely,
You'd see;
How the shadows follow their helpless folks at night, perhaps lost themselves.
You'd see;
The eery echo of footsteps belonging not to the human themselves, but their thoughts, their paranoia
For they're not alone, they are never alone
Hush! Hush!
Don't let the them know you're listening -
Don't allow them to control your very existence,
What do you hear at night?
When all is quiet and the gentle buzz of life has composed itself, now simmering
What do you hear at night?
Silence? Or worse, the benign yet firm whisperings of your mind.
If you were to look closely,
(which I suggest you do not)
You'd see things beyond your realm of understanding.
Don't look, don't ever look closely again.
