If I had a Say

I wake to find another day
Scared of the spirits that come to play
The little whispers that stray
Towards me as they delay

They whisper of their rules
Sounding like a bunch of fools

They can`t be here or their
They tell me to be fair

Not a shadow on my wall
Standing ten feet tall

Not a crow at my window sill
Trying to catch my attention still

Not a monster under my bed
For me to dread

Yet around me they swarm
As they whisper without form
Creating quite the storm
As I watch them perform

Up and down my walls
The spirits shadow falls

Then I find one even nearer
Standing in my mirror

So what to do with the lost ghost
That I now host

Should I hide them under my bed
Just monsters to dread

Or walk with  them today
If only I had a say
