The clock stopped at the moment it arrived
Brittany Renee Annis
It wants to trade places with you now
Brittany Renee Annis
It’s been here longer than the house itself
Brittany Renee Annis
It wants to know what you are afraid of
Brittany Renee Annis
It wrote your story long before you arrived
Brittany Renee Annis
It’s always been here just waiting to be seen
Brittany Renee Annis
The comforting routine that has now become a ritual
Brittany Renee Annis
It watches you through the smallest of cracks
Brittany Renee Annis
It will let you go if you find it first
Brittany Renee Annis
A flaw in the world only you can see
Brittany Renee Annis
A door that was open is now closed
Brittany Renee Annis
A deep cold that has nothing to do with weather
Brittany Renee Annis
A memory of something that hasn't happened yet
Brittany Renee Annis
A picture on the wall that watches you
Brittany Renee Annis
A secret that stains these quiet empty walls
Brittany Renee Annis
A perfect replica of something that is now gone
Brittany Renee Annis
It doesn't want to kill you but to replace you
Brittany Renee Annis
A safe haven that has turned into a prison
Brittany Renee Annis
A stranger’s perfume in your very own room
Brittany Renee Annis
A silence so deep it has its own sound
Brittany Renee Annis
A place so quiet you can hear your blood
Brittany Renee Annis
A pretty cage is still a cagefter all
Brittany Renee Annis
A warmth that promises a very cold end
Brittany Renee Annis
A welcoming smile that does not reach the eyes
Brittany Renee Annis
A whisper that sounds too much like you
Brittany Renee Annis
It knows the secret you have never told
Brittany Renee Annis
It doesn’t have a face but it sees you
Brittany Renee Annis
It doesn’t have to hide from you anymore
Brittany Renee Annis
It hides in the silence between your thoughts
Brittany Renee Annis
It is the architect of your worst nightmares
Brittany Renee Annis
