Hunter

the shadows of the dark,
Silently watching,
Hunting like a shark,
The driftwood burns,
Under satin skies,
On the wind, you hear,
Those bloodthirsty cries,
A monster stalking,
Belonging in the deep,
Restless and hungry,
A beast that doesn't sleep,
Try to guard your soul,
But I'm afraid it just won't work,
Tendrils slip around you,
Pulling you in with a smirk,
Beware, I say,
Yet hopeless in time,
For there is nothing, nothing,
That can halt this crime,
Just watch -
as you walk home tonight,
When it comes for you,
There'll be no room for fright.
