Honestly, it reminds me of the shadow that I thought watched over me when I slept when I was little. The thought of that shadow man would scare the heebeegeebees out of me. Though I do wonder about the shadow man being our life. The bad side of ourselves, that black part of ourselves that we fear? That shadow man. Different shadow man, I have some control over him, the one of my childhood had the control instead. Have you had more than one? Do you control him or does he control you?
