After Dawn
Walking back after sunset,
looking past my shoulder scared .
Feel the eyes digging into me,
what could happen if they dared.
I tell myself not to fear,
But if something happened then it would be 'cause my top was sheer.
Growing footsteps behind me,
I slowly start running.
My eyes moist ,
my feet numb.
Finally I reach home ,
in the frightening night.
The colors return to my cheeks,
feeling safe and light.
