Coward

in the shadows i sit down,
there is no light to warm my soul,
of a fight i never run,
i was beaten to the bone,
a big smile to the nurses,
i never mind their needles,
all the witches and their curses,
no protection was needed,
I was not intimidated by beast or man,
and do not tell me about death,
I never knew what a coward I will be,
because I never had to fear,
in the night i walk alone,
and there’s no sun to bright my way,
a haunted house it’s my home,
with the spirits i play games,
horror it’s a simple word to me,
feelings will ever meet,
I never knew what a coward i can be,
because I haven’t met you yet.
