watch your back

2:30am..
im hungry..i decided to go out to get something to eat...
it wasnt the first time i was hungry at odd hours...
my dad doesn't like me eating maggie mee..
he rather i go eat something else outside..

I open and reverse the car out...
while reversing out from the gate...
i thought i saw a little girl figure...
at the right side road...
just a flash..
i think so...
coz when im done reversing facing the road..
i see nothing...
i see branches of leaves of my garden sticking out...

i step on the oil pedal..
suddenly a cold chill ran down my spine...
then it struck me..
it is 60 days this year...
it was 2:30am...
....

The road was quiet..
unusually maybe usually...
suddenly i feel..
dunno...
some sort of presence...
the loud radio is not helping...
i know my mind can be very imaginative...
i twist away the back mirror...
to the side...

I came to a traffic light..
it was red light..
but i ran through it...
then i remembered the sayings...
that you may ran over "them" on red lights at night...
i feel really one kind...
the presence is still there..
and now this guilty feeling...
the loud radio is not helping...

I can't help..
but keep checking out the back seats..
everywhere..
i keep feeling one kind..
like a presence..
or a force..
like as in something will approach me from behind..
crawling from behind..
hiding from behind..
touch me..
...

the loud radio is really not helping...

I decided to cut short and turn back...
the way back really freaks me..
the road were unusually empty and lonely..
where are the cars... ???
the 3 mins drive back seems forever...
the presence can kill me...

behind..
behind..
from behind..
don't touch me..
im sorry...
please...
im on the verge of...
suffocating...

the last left turn to my house...
should i check out the spot of the little girl flash again...
and i did..
there was nothing there..
thanks..
i press on the gate controller...
gates open and i drives in...
another flash..
on the white walls..
what it is..
no..i dun bother think..
the presence is still there...

im breaking down...
i just park the car...
off the engine and went in my house...

Once i was in the house..
i dun feel it anymore...
i dunno what is it...
but i know i want to write this down...
it freaks me out...
why..i dunno why..

laugh at me and call me a fool..
i know my imagination is working overtime

but...
Im just glad im back home..
Im just glad i didnt encounter anything...

I think im gonna leave the lights on tonight...

always remember to watch your back...
