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.
