With the shadow that walked with her,
she knew,
she was not home alone tonight
The sixth sense was working
It was true
Dinner was not a lonely time.
The light behind the shadowed wall
From the half moon with a full glare.
There were shadows
Bent around the corner
In the dark with a little light.
The moon
Beaming in from the window
an evil frown
She would never be alone
Because there were shadows which followed,
shadows to give company.
And this was different
these shadow, unlike the others,
not her own.
Unwanted silhouettes
cold, lifeless,
transparent yet opaque
Following.

Oh this is scary I have always bee frightened of shadows in a house I once lived in we often (my family) saw humanesque shadows on the walls but there was nothing to explain them
I have never had any such experience but heard about them a lot. It must be scary.
It was I don’t see them now where I currently live though thankfully
Scarrrryyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!…………….. I never have this experience …..
Thankfully me neither 😛 But I have heard stories.
Me too Abhilasha!!!!!!!!!!!!………. Hmmm am excited to live through!!!!!
I know, it’ll be thrilling!
this is scary – but i also see this as not just a bad thing, but a good thing – the shadows of those you love and who are gone. they follow you and keep an eye on you.
Yes, it might be true………thanks for reading 🙂
Shadows to give company, as against lonely dinners, why should it stil be ‘unwanted’ silhouettes?
Great point….But won’t it be creepy and odd to see shadows of people who don’t really exist. It means there something wrong and mystical……..Thanks for reading.
i may lik it, but yeah, i see ur point. good work. keep it up.
Thank you 🙂
Scary, but there is still a sort of relief in not being alone, even if the only company is our own demons and shadows. Beautiful!
I would prefer staying alone rather than fighting my own demons. But yes, a lot of people have your perspective too. Thank for reading and also for your comment 🙂
It’s morning when I read this …I have a feeling I will be thinking of it when the sun goes down
Oh I had no idea it’s this good. Thank you so much for reading 🙂
