A shadow fell on her face
Eyes closed
Deep in sleep
Unaware she lay
A scream pierced the night
Followed by sirens
Under the starry sky
Moonless
Yet bright
Nothing added up
A mystery it lay
For the shadow had moved on
And so did they
The shadow sought
Yet another soul
For it’s thirst wasn’t quenched
Until he’d savored four
It glided along a footpath
Whence it smelled it’s prey
Fool were he
To roam at that dire place
A shiver he felt
Run down his spine
As his shadow, behind
Was upon him in no time
Heartily fed
The shadow left
Never would it return now
Never could it return now
For it lay in the hands of it’s creator
Hidden from the world of souls
Hidden from the shadows of death…
