Shadow

Feel me. I am the dark shadow that crawls in the night. I am only but one. Where I live there is no light. A blinding eye of darkness that travels within the mist. To make you fear what comes with the dusk. Just another dark shadow hiding in the veil of night. I am the itch you feel. The chill that crawls up your spine. I will make your hair stand on end. I am here to take up your space. Breathe in your air. Create you nightmares. Control your fears. Wake you. Screaming into the blurry haze. Feel me. I am the dark shadow that crawls in the night.

How wonderful and dark shadows perfectly expressed. As a child, I remember being frightened of dark shadows and cried for mommy. I'm passed that as an adult, I think. LOL
