I'm afraid to close my eyes.

It seems that every time I do, he's standing there.

Not doing anything, just standing, staring at me.

I don't know whether he's going to attack me, or leave peacefully without a second thought.

I want to say something to him, but sometimes I also want to just ignore him.

Why is he doing this to me?

Is he satisfied at seeing innocent people cower in fear?

Because that's what he's doing to me.

He won't rest until he has me begging for mercy.

Then will he leave me alone?

Or will he continue to be the mysterious stalker that preys on my insecurity and fright?
