Creep — A Poem

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Oswego chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.

Hair raises on my arms

Butterflies arrive in my stomach

Toes curl up

Knee starts bouncing

 

I glance out the window

There he is again

Who?

My Creep

What does he look like?

I wish I knew

I’ve only seen his shadow

 

It could be anyone I know

Or someone I don’t know

Could be a serial killer

Or just your average frat boy

 

No one will listen to me

Not my friends

Not my family

Not even the police

 

As I stare at the shadow

I wonder when he will come

Come to kill me

Come to take me away

Come to visit

 

I see a white flash

Yet another creepy photo

Who knows what he took a photo of

I sure do not want to know

 

All I want is to know

Who he is

What he wants

And for him to leave

And to never come back

 

I look out the window

He is gone

But not for long

For he is my 

Creep

And he will not leave

Until he gets what he wants
