WHY ME?

Why?
Why can I not sleep at night?
Why does my hair stand on end?
Why does a shiver run up my spine?
Why do my teeth chatter?
Why do I get a sudden chill electrifying through me?
Why do my aching bones grow weak?
Why must it be me?
Who feels a presence? And
A pair of haunting eyes? And
Why only in the shadows?
Why won’t it go away?
Why do I constantly need to look over my shoulder?
Right then left?
Back and forth?
Up and down?
Near and far?
Above and below?
Only in the shadows.
