The Harvester
Where Fear Feeds and Shadows Consume
By Jason “Jay” BenskinPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

When midnight comes and silence spreads,
It rises from where fear treads.
No eyes, no voice—just a twisted grin,
It draws you close, drags you in.
--
Its touch is ice that seeps through bone,
Feeding on the dread you've never shown.
You feel your mind begin to fray,
As it tears your will away.
--
You reach to scream, but your breath is gone,
It devours slow, inch by drawn-out inch.
No life remains, yet death won't claim,
You linger there, just a husk in its flame.
--
When it leaves, you're hollow, spent,
A shadow consumed in the dark it sent.
The Hunger moves on, fades out of sight,
Leaving behind one more lost to the night.
