In The Corner of My Eye (Poetry)

Was it a ghost or just a mist?
Somehow I have to keep a short list
There have been things I have been seeing lately
I just don’t like to face it squarely or bravely
Feeling afraid it was just a mirage
And they are only something I want to envisage
Cannot deny at times it brings joy to my heart
Seeing what I do not expect, my chest rips apart.
In a moment I can feel the growing fear
It seems there is a monster ready to ensnare
A feeling of guilt is quite rushing in
There must be a danger from deep within
Everything is just a make believe
No matter how hard you try to retrieve
Imagination or just being delusional
Never try to be so emotional
Life will always have its twist and turns
You have to be careful you might get those burns
Better to be careful than to feel sorry
Don’t ever too much concerned and less be worried
