Darkness

I can feel the shadows
Closing in onto me
As they move across
The floors and walls
Dropping down
Form the roof
And slithering out
Every crack and nook
I look and I see it
Shadowy figures
Teeth sharp
As night is black
And they all lunge at me
Tearing at me
Ripping off my flesh
And destroying the light
That dwells inside
Till I am
Nothing more but a shade
A shadow of what I was
And a demon of
What I am now
With sharp blood red claws
Teeth the will sheard
And the need
The need for human flesh
