Fear of the Dark

I can't see you
But I know you're there
In the dark corners of my mind
Watching
Waiting
Biding your time

I hear you breathing
Laughing
Mocking me
Tempting me
Taunting me

You have been my greatest comfort
My constant companion in life
Now I see that you were nothing more than a parasite
Keeping me alive only to tear me apart
All the while feeding on me
My fear

Fear of the dark
Fear of the light
Fear of losing you
Of losing myself

I can't see you
But I know you're still there
I can hear you breathe
Won't you please
Come out and play?
