Shadows

In the night, I hear voices. In the dark, I see gleaming eyes. You eat away at human souls, Full of jealousy and greed. Your kind cackle in the night, Gnawing on me. I look around, Where are you now? Show yourself! The worst time is the sunrise; Rushing away with my sanity, You run and hide behind everything, Hide and seek with the sunlight. You wait in a dark corner, Where we're tempted to lay our eyes. You creep and sneak along the ground, And eventually into our minds. You're a shadow.
