halloween

As long as I’m alive
I shy away from the night
Hiding in the the comfort of my room
As the scary people walk outside

I cry into my pillow
Knowing no one would come for me
Wishing that I could be outside
Knowing I could only cry for me

I’m alone on this Tuesday night
This night and every other night
I caress the side of my pillow
No one misses me tonight

I left town the other morning
Hoping someone would notice
But the only thing they notice
Is the paleness I left behind

So long ‘til the end
Of this endless spooky night
I left the car keys in my car
I have felt nothing since
