A Shadow Creeping Closer (I Am)
A shadow creeping closer, the heart races in dread,
Faint echoes in the dark, where fears seem to tread.
A whisper like a knife, splitting calm from the head,
A shadow creeping closer, the heart races in dread.
The quiet’s just a mask, hiding specters instead,
The pulse pounds in your chest, where the dark tales are fed.
A shadow creeping closer, the heart races in dread.
In the silent night, where the ancient fears spread,
The stillness cloaks a beast, its hunger widespread.
A shadow creeping closer, the heart races in dread,
Your breath hitches in the dark, where old phantoms are led,
A heart gripped by shadows, both alive and dead.
A shadow creeping closer, the heart races in dread.
You sense its cold touch, every nerve’s edges bled,
The weight of ancient sins, pressing hard as lead.
A shadow creeping closer, the heart races in dread.
It slithers through the cracks, where your sanity’s shed,
Chilling whispers mock, as your courage is bled.
A shadow creeping closer, the heart races in dread.
Time ticks like a drum, the horror’s path has spread,
An ancient fear awakens, filling dreams with dread.
A shadow creeping closer, the heart races in dread.
Each breath becomes a gasp, your mind’s lost in the spread,
A looming terror waits, as reason is dead.
A shadow creeping closer, the heart races in dread.
