I don't know where to begin. If this isn't some early manifestation of "grooming", I don't know. I'm only asking for it because I'm (possibly naively) assuming there were no sinister connotations intended.

Not that I've ever been stalked, but I once received a gift in the post that purported to be 'from an admirer' who said he 'saw me every day' It freaked the hell out of me - then transpired some days later it was a joke from a junior member of my family. I never did see the funny side, though I knew it had been done in all innocence. It was just totally creepy, more so than I'd have thought.

Well, you're my friend and can you see,
Many times we've been out drinkin',
Many times we've shared our thoughts,
But did you ever, ever notice, the kind of thoughts I got?
Well, you know I have a love, a love for everyone I know.
And you know I have a drive to live, I won't let go.
But can you see this opposition comes rising up sometimes?
That it's dreadful imposition, comes blacking in my mind.
And that I see a darkness.
And that I see a darkness.
And that I see a darkness.
Did you know how much I love you?
Is a hope that somehow you,
Can save me from this darkness.
