stalker...

when
no one's looking,
dreams are
haunting
the back of my brain like
shadows
that have no
edge.
I see
shadows.
Do they see
me?

Yikes, Eri... is that 'Sixth Sense'?

dianne said...

Jean are you having those kind of bad dreams that leave a feeling of unease with you throughout the day and make you feel anxious? I really hate those.

Jean said...

No, not really, Dianne. I rarely remember dreams.

kdzu said...

Good Question.
Are they your shadows.........
......or mine?

Jean said...

Larry...hehehe.

I see a handgun in your future...

Doom said...

Ah, fears. Shadows of my mind anyway. Guns won't help free one of most of those, it is merely and purely fear itself. Things that were, things that are, and things that are to come. Claustrophobia is my newest lady of darkness, my fear in lace, love, and death.

Ok, enough oddity. Is it of fear with which you speak (write)?

Jean said...

thank you, Corby.

Mark - well, actually not. When I went to the range the one and only time, it made me realize that having a gun was not a good choice for me.

Doom, indeed.

Deadman said...

Can I interest you in a nice bazooka, then?

Jean said...

BWAHAHAHAHA!!

Shadows.
Something in the dark unseen.

I can almost taste it.

Fear is becoming my friend.
We stay close.

I think I see it.

Senses on high, I wait for dawn.
I wait with my fear.

Gone with the light.

for sure

first off, of course they see you. They reach out and grab your feet as you walk along. If every action has an opposite and equal reaction....what is the reaction of a shadow?

OK, that's silly. It never has a reaction because it has no voice.
On the other hand, Bird has a post MADE for aspiring young writers like you.

I love it when you get all noir. *grin*

Jean said...

Anon, that's excellent! (Is that you, Cactus Mark?)

/t, I can guarantee my hairdresser isn't telling :-)

Berry, I went, I read, I was very impressed! Thanks.

Irrel... aw, shucks. hehe.
