Emotion.

I lie down and wait.

He's coming.

I can feel him.

Loving the light that darkness brings.


Along my spine he slides.

Along my heart he rides.

Cunning and skilled.

If I twitch, he goes for the kill.


With time I understood,

However theatrical,

However brutal,

To simply let him pass.


For there is one rule:

If I do not move,

He cannot strike,

He must leave my sight.
