Write a poem based on the theme of anonymity.
Do You Know?
Do you know what lies beneath your soul?
Do you know my face?
I have no name but all the control
I will remove your identity and you shall take my place
Entrenched in who you are means nothing to me
For I will remove every possibility to see,
Your light even with the smallest of flickers.
I watch your smile wither and make you overly anxious
I erase your good memories and all viable hope
I watch you become overstimulated
And laugh as you choke
Do you know me yet?
I’m the hauntings of mistake and regret
Yet my face changes with each passing day
Until you turn old and decay
Then I will make someone else’s sky grey
