by Lost Dream

-

deep in the shadows

there is the fox

gazing at me

with an unblinking eye

glittering in the night

cunning and sharp

and waiting

waiting for my surrender

-

deep in the shadows

in the thick of the leaves

there is the eagle

observing me silently

with wisdom

and horrible irony

and he’s just waiting

waiting for me

-

deep in the shadows

I see myself

myself being watched

being too afraid to move

and I see fox and eagle

deep in the night

and I am waiting

waiting for the end
