Shining Bright Poet Prose Poetry

Shadow Man

a shadow man,
lurking in the shadows of her soul,
he is always there, wherever she goes,
she fears him,
for in the darkness of night,
he will come to her room,
his hand reaching from beneath her bed,
drag her by the ankle to a porthole in the floor,
no-one can hear her kicking and screaming with fear,
then suddenly it stops,
she is too afraid to fall asleep again,
she watches the time ticking until sunrise when she feels safe,
then falls asleep.
