Cold winds
Rustling leaves
A chill in the air
A strange feeling lurking in the air
Walking these quiet streets wondering what’s waiting for me.
I look left and right
Someone, something is watching me.
All around I look
The atmosphere laughs at me….
Snickers at my insanity
I feel, I know something’s there
“Who are you?
Show yourself.”
A whistle creeps from the alley of darkness
Taps my shoulder
I turn in the other direction
“Hello….”
Trails off my lips
And disappears from its host
I walk on into the valley of abysses
Strangeness stirring me
An eerie echo of my footsteps
Causing me to halt
Stopped in my tracks like a deer in headlights
I am left lost as to world the world has suddenly stopped
Lingering I am left in total darkness
“Come….
Show yourself”
“No….” it replies
“It’s not time….you’re not ready”
The dialogue ends here
And now I am left….
wondering
