A Child Waiting

Standing in the darkness
Bathed in moonlight
I stare through the night
As shadows pass over me
A shiver runs down my spine
Snaking through me like a growing vine
The pain washes over me
Flowing through my veins
The source of which I can't explain
I'm only sixteen
But have so much to fear
Like the whispers in my head, only I can hear
The emptiness in me
Tears at my soul
The darkness threatening to devour me whole
The fear is a monster
It attacks with sharp claws
And snaps at my heart with huge dripping jaws
Crystal droplets flow down my face
In the shadows I stand and cry
Still a child, yet waiting to die
