Beware The Shadows

Short horror poem

Beware the shadows

They come out at night

Relish what remains of today

While the sun still shines bright

For dusk will soon come

And with it hordes of spectral blights

Beware the shadows 

They come out at night

A baleful malevolence

Existing with the sole purpose

To snuff all light

If you happen to see them

I implore you abscond

Find a lucent haven

As hastily as you can

Then kneel and pray

To prevail for another day

For they are a perilous legion

Seeking only the extinction of life

Beware the shadows

They come out at night
