Day and Night,
Night and Day.
Each passing day,
Each passing hour,
Passing minute,
Passing second.
Everything you do or say,
Is seen,
By them.
Look up.
See them?
In the patterns on your celing?
On your walls?
On your sheets?
On your clothes?
They are everywhere.
Watching,
Watching,
Watching.
The scrathing in your walls,
The bumps in the night.
They whisper to your children.
Tell them,
To keep quiet,
Or else.
If you should see them,
Don't let them know.
See them?
The faces?
The many many,
Faces?
All watching,
All waiting.
There,
Then gone.
There's something here,
Something waiting.
There's something in the walls.
They see all,
And it's only a matter of time,
Before they decide,
To,
Come,
Out.

Have you ever noticed that you see faces when you look in patterns or on the dots on ceilings?

Good Idea with the faces in the walls,really creepy but unique as well. Some parts I felt could have flowed together better but all together it was really good!:]
