I am watching the shadows. 

 

 

They like to stay at the edges of my vision

 

Dancing in the moonlight

Playing in the sunlight

 

Flickering in and out

 

They grow in strength and size, always there when I'm watching

 

I can feel them with me as they swarm my perception as I glance around

 

 

They are always there when I'm looking

Wherever 

Whenever 

 

All the time

 

Then at night, as I watched them state back in my pitch black room, it occurred to me

 

I realized sometbing

 

 

 

I had it all wrong

 

 

I was never watching the shadows

 

 

They were watching me
