There’s a knocking in my head again

and it’s louder than before

a voice that drips like candlewax

across the cracks beneath the floor

"make it stop—

...or let it out—

this house was never mine to begin with..."

i watched her sleep

...like it was the last dream she’d ever keep

my hands on the hallway walls

following voices down the crawlspace

she closed the door

but doors are just suggestions

and i am done with being locked out

of what was always meant to be mine

she married a ghost

and i’m just reminding her

what it feels like to be seen

HERE IS JOHNNY!!

I see her light

but i only cast shadows

her name’s a prayer

...i scream through the gallows

don’t run—

it makes the game less fun

love me

like you used to…
