Shadows

A deeper shadow in the darkness
Silent footfalls in the night
Creeping through the deep subconscious
Just beyond the edge of sight

A stealthy hunter stalking prey, or
Silent thief treading so light
Peering out form in the shadows
Just beyond the edge of sight

Bringing terror to the waking
Nightmares to who sleeps this night
Until the morning lights the shadows
Just beyond the edge of sight
