Paranoid




Paranoid -  Published in Captured In Verse


When I wake in the midnight hour,

I can feel someone's breath on my neck,

But when I turn there's no one there.

I can feel someone watching me,

But when I look there's no one there.

When I take my dog for a walk,

I can feel you following me,

But when I turn there's no one there.

I can hear you whispering in my ear,

But when I look there's no one there.

When I take a shower,

I can feel you washing me,

But when I turn there's no one there.

I can see you through the shower curtain,

But when I look there's no one there.

When I make a cup of tea,

I can hear you stirring the cup,

But when I turn there's no one there,

I can hear you drinking,

But when I look there's no one there.

When I go to bed,

I can feel you stroking me,

But when I turn there's no one there.

I can hear you slightly snoring,

But when I look there's no one there.

I tried to work it out,

But the Doctor said I was fine,

But why do I hear and feel you?

Maybe you're my guardian Angel,

Or maybe I'm just plain paranoid.
