Shades appear around you

As you lie down to sleep

Silent whispers in the dark

Horrid shapes, deformities

Cringe and close your eyes

Beg the horrors, 'leave me be'

Alone you face your beast,

Shuddering as you weep

Shadows fall, the night's here

Faces haunt my dreams

Cries from times forgotten

Of Old evils

Visions roam your mind

Sunken cities, forgotten crimes

From dark corners of the earth,

Tales from wicked times

Yield to the fear

Alone and battered in the dark

The nightmare now reality

A hollow shell, insanity
