  • The Prowler

    The Prowler I left my window open before I went to bed.The dew fills the room.The sun kisses the sky.As the light peeks through, I close my eyes.In the night is when I will rise,I sleep all day and prowl the streets at night;looking for the one who’s just right!

    I left my window open before I went to bed.The memories of you filled my head.I spoke to them to let me beBut those memories wouldn’t leave.They crushed my chest; I could not breathe.Then I remember why I felt that way.So I closed my eye and slept you away.
