The Creature

Along with peace, the light has faded An eerie silence lingers for a moment Among the shadows they will creep Darkness walks, alone and unseen Flowers retreat, silently waiting for love to return The forest awakens to an abandoned home Unashamed, the monsters stalk Unapproachable, yet ready to strike A shiver flows through the treetops A soft golden glow signals the end Anxiously the monsters flee Fear has no hold, peace returns
