Tapping Tapping Tapping

Loneliness in a Noisy House

Tapping Tapping Tapping

Ticking Ticking
Of the Mantel Clock
Pealing at my Brain
My Body in Shock
Hair stands on High
Air grows Cold
Story of a Murder
Just heard on the Show
Scratching at my Window
Tapping at the Door
Is it just Branches?
Or something more?
The Darkness is Deeper
Like a sinking Black Hole
My body is weaker
As my Imagination takes Hold
Am I being Silly?
Is this just thoughts
Am I safe and all alone?
Or am I really not?
I hope it's just Mental
Foolish foolish me
There goes another Tapping
Damn, I hope it is that Tree !
