They Hide

The shadows you see dancing around,

They come as they please.

You're trapped in the darkness.

You shut your eyes tight.

Hoping that it's all just a dream.

It all fades to black.

Tension fills the air.

Surrounded by darkness.

Encompassed by the blackness.

You fall prey to the void.

A place where the creatures all dwell.

They feast on your fear.

They survive on your terror.

All that's left for you to do is surrender.

It's pointless to fight them.

You cannot survive them.
