act 1_week 2: The Shadow Monster

I awoke with a start.
"What was that noise I wonder?"
To the corner of the room my eyes did dart,
And I felt my body shudder.

No words can be a fitting description
Of what lay before my eyes.
On hindsight, maybe it was a manifestation
Of the darkness that in my mind lies.

But in that moment nothing else mattered,
Just total paralyzing horror did i mark;
And in the cold terror, my teeth chattered
As I was overcome with fear of the dark.


This sketch shows the fear in the my eye, as I behold the shadow monster before me. The reflection of his hand reaching out for me is seen in my iris.
