Watching, Creeping, Hunting

Listen you can hear
The beast is loose
With piercing red eyes
It lives in the shadows

Watching, creeping ...... hunting
It’s next move is stealthy 
Smirking at the times 
When you are not at your best 

Looking for your weaknesses
Strength in adversity is needed
Control above all else
As it lurks and awaits its moment.
