I summoned something yesterday
It called to me from the left to say
"Is that you walking with a dog?
Beware the dark, the rising fog
Her bark won't scare my kind away"
It was just a thought, an ethereal being
Something I manifested seeing
My soul shrouded by its own smog
I felt like a current carrying a log
All my surroundings closing in
I kept my pace and followed stride
But lacking confidence, I lied
To the inner child carried by fear
Of things that scare, of things not dear
And wandered with nowhere to hide
Eva was guiding me, as usual
The thought discomfort wasn't mutual
She saw no shadows being covert
She heard no voices to alert
They were all trapped inside my skull
The walk was ended with success
I walked away from the anxious mess
The paranoia followed close behind
But I hid it back inside my mind
Thankful to Eva nonetheless
