There's something lurking at the other side. Don't give in.
There he was standing,
I never knew he could speak,
He never seemed like a talker,
So I presumed he was mute.

Daily,
As I passed this street painted yellow,
His eyes shone from a distance,
My bones cringed within,
I couldn't bear to look I unfollowed
This street painted yellow.

He always wore the same dress,
Black necktie and a hat,
Cuddling the same pet,
The colorful eyed cat,
He didn't seem too impressed.

The man on the other side,
Have you heard about him?
He lurks in the shadows,
Meticulously planning endings,
Making his-story-unending.

Stay far away from him,
He will steal your peace,
Working tirelessly without ease,
He lies within your fears,
Sugarcoating his desires,
With sweet words into your ears.

His mission is simple,
Can't you see?
He wants your soul,
His love will swallow you whole,
Be on alert!
Don't tolerate him,
Flee!
