The Ghost That Haunts Me

by Mary Lord DeGrood - Leo

I sense its presence everywhere
It's in my dreams, in my nightmares

A shadow follows in the light
Haunting whispers in the night

My body trembles as it nears
It thrives upon my fears

I feel the pressure on my chest
Ripping my heart, through my breast

It's in my head; my mind is reeling
Now my body has no feelings

What is this horrid creature
Though it has manly features

Torturous pain that it casts
It's someone from my past
Birth sign: Leo
