Shadowed Figure

Word list: task, build, why, shadowed, dare, feel

Shadowed figure

floating within

chasm of fear.

 

I feel rather than see

your presence before me,

building my courage

to look upon your face..

 

No…

the task is too great…

Why do you haunt me?

 

Shadowed figure

floating without

realms of possibility

 

You dare to appear

without fear..

my skin senses

presence of darkness.

 

Hear anguished lament,

glimpse despair, and

sense scent of atrocity

 

Shadowed figure

floating in mystic

Madness….

Definitely piercing loive! I adore this, as I do all your work :) Always something in the shadows to haunt us, I relate well! Excellent form hon xx

Definitely dark, haunting piece...obligations or maybe self doubt take on a spectral from...haunting from withing. Self pity, anguish, self loathing, depression these all could fit into this ghoulish form. So many possibilities that you masterfully left open.

[Cliff Rhodes]

Fears of shadowy figures in darkness, whether real or in the imagination, still make the nerves jingle and jangle.

oo haunting and ominous!! you do wonders with these challenges! "you dare to appear without fear my skin senses presence of darkness" - nice!

[Jūdan FyreHeart]

This has a great feel about it. The lingering feelings of been between the realms, pausing to consider, push the boundaries and test the limits. =D

[Lilly Negoi]

haunting write indeed..."you dare to appear/ without fear/ my skin senses/ presence of darkness"...beautiful!

[Tommy]

This piece reminded me of someone suffering from schizophrenia. Scary thought not knowing reality from delusion. I can't imagine having to deal with something like that. Having to face the fact that the things you see and sense are not real. Brings a whole new feel to the term haunting. I think you used the words very creatively.

Nice Write!
