I walk through a moonless night,

An empty road with a thoughtless mind.

All alone not a soul at sight,

Is it true or am I blind?

I tell myself, to open my senses,

Hoping to meet someone kind.

Ready to look through different lenses,

Is it true or am I blind?

Streetlights seem to disappear,

No windows on houses, I find.

For there isn't a reason to fear,

Is it true or am I blind?

A loud howling at a distance,

A wolf, a ghost, or all combined.

Need some courage and persistence,

Is it true or am I blind?

A sudden chill runs through my spine,

And a grip on my leg of who's behind.

On looking, there's no one to define

Is it true or am I blind?

Pacing faster now, my torchlight flickers

Want to go home, away from this grind

Can't see the face of who snickers

Is it true or am I blind?

There is a park three blocks away

Who's branches of trees are entwined 

Ghosts swing all night, they say 

Is Is true or am I blind?
