I have a name.

It may bring you distress.

Let's play a game

Maybe you can guess

What lies in your house

At all times of day

Very much like a mouse

It's hard to keep me at bay.

I laugh as you look

In your home

Lifting every book

You search as I roam.

Is that me over there?

No, how could it be

I am like the air

You cannot see

I love to take

All that you love

Will you break?

Lemme give you a shove.

You can't see me?

I wonder who

Oh! I see

Because I'm inside you.

It's really a simple game.

Did you make a guess?

Want my name?

It is Darkness.
