We are the children of the night,
Hidden in the shadows watching all of the people in the world bellow
Our heartbeats loud our movements as wild as the beasts in the jungle
Our faces are hidden seeing everything but we ourselves remain unseen
In the darkness we hide sensing your fear but never admitting to our own
We are the children of the shadows hiding in the place where others run from.

© Hannah L., Struthers, OH

The author's comments:
This was origanally inspired by darkness and the stories that are hidden in the shadows. Everyone has a secret that they don't want told and so they keep them hidden in the 'shadows' of there minds.
