I am the shadow
Stitched to your heels,
And every night
I spy on your dreams…
Wondering,
Puzzled, almost lost.
Would she fight,
For you, no matter the cost?
I’ve never felt your lips,
Never touched your skin
But I know all the secrets,
That you’ve been holding in…
She better be wise and
She better beware
Believe me, Sugar
She better be prepared.
One wrong step
One look astray
And I will step in
And steal you away!
Crawling under your skin
You’ll wear me like a tattoo…
Until that day,
I’ll keep an eye on you!
