Felt His Scream

AI Generated cover image for a poem titled, FELT HIS SCREAM, written by Eric Montgomery, American Poet. mrericmontgomery.com

He saw her face in the mirror
He saw her face in the mirror
She was not there, she was dead
She was not there, she was dead

She was dead in the mirror, he saw her face
She was not there, he was dead

He heard her voice in the phone
He heard her voice in the phone
Do you like scary movies?
Do you like scary movies?

Do you like the phone, he heard her voice
He heard scary movies in the phone

He felt her breath on his neck
He felt her breath on his neck
She was behind him, he screamed
She was behind him, he screamed

He screamed behind his neck, he felt her breath
She was on him, she felt his scream

He saw her face, he heard her voice, he felt her breath
She was not there, she was dead, she was behind him
He screamed in the mirror, he heard scary movies
She was on him, she felt his scream, do you like the phone?
