“I’m Watching You”

by Caroline Heath

Every breath you take

Every move you make

Every place you go

I’m always there


That soft whistle 

you think you hear at night

in the empty halls

or the tiny creaks of

the floorboards


Chatting with your

friends

I can hear


Should you be afraid?

that’s your decision

But one wrong move

could erupt a sight

you will never unsee


For I,

In the shadows,

Am watching you.
