Satin Sheets in Liverpool

Walking down a dark and empty corridor,

I listen to every creak, click, and breath.

Looking forward, pretending no one is there.

I stop at the door, and turn on the lights,

Making sure my room is empty.

Turn them off, I scurry to the bed.

Jump into the covers,

I cover myself up and over my head.

Trying not to breathe too heavily,

Trying not to beat my heart too loudly,

Trying to fall asleep.

I close my eyes.

My covers are pulled!

A comedian stands at my bed,

Stabbing me in the chest.

I wake up the next morning,

But I’m not there.
