It's Silence That Haunts Me

Solitude is my scariest nightmare

The creeps I get when no one’s there

Call me lame but I need at least one person by my side

Just that one lamp through the darkness which will be my guide

I don’t want to be surrounded by people all the time

But I need my peeps otherwise I am trapped inside an invisible box like a mime

I dread to fall in the pit with no escape

Where there is neither a helping hand nor a flying cape

I am damn scared to be lonely

Where my companions are my fears and insecurities only

Where even if I get all the wealth I’ll still be a prisoner of my mirror

And there will be no one wipe my tears

Maybe it will make me strong

But I will rather be weak and have someone along

I don’t want to live such a life where walls of my own house will taunt me

Because it's the never-ending Silence that haunts me…
