    I am the one

    I'm the clouds that gather
    in the darkness of the night
    I'm the hidden shadows
    that wither in the light
    I'm the hint of nightmare
    that lingers from your dreams
    and I'm the one that frightens you
    and brings about your screams.
    Sometimes I go unnoticed
    although I’m always there
    It's my breath that chills you
    with it's dankness in your ear.
    I am all and I am nothing
    and all else in between
    and when your moment is at hand
    I'll come for you unseen.
    Fear not the judgment that you face
    beyond this live you live
    fear the one that in the end
    will deliver you instead.
    I am the soulless demon
    from which you can't escape
    and when we meet and meet we shall
    it's your very life I'll take.

    Nice...A love the flow and the suttle haunting of the words. It's kind of frightening but the outcome is so certain (I am the soulless demon from which you can't escape) that it's almost comforting

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
