Gnaw

You party tonight
Not for long I know
You have to drive
You'll converse
Laugh at them
Maybe even with them
I will be there
Niggling
Gnawing at the base of your skull
You will feel my breath on your neck
A silent sigh will escape inwards
You will recall details
Breathing
Teeth
A doorway
I don't fret that I am not there
Nor do I pine at the secrecy
For I know
I am there
Breathing down your neck
