Dark thoughts

I dwell in your mind,
Beneath your scalp,
behind your eyes.

I see you there
And what you think
Before you tell others
With pen and ink.

You must love me,
I have hooks and claws,
Ready to tear the love out
Of strangers in the night.

I am your sacred soul,
Your cold conscience,
Your thoughts.

I dwell in your mind,
Beneath your scalp,
Behind your eyes.
