Where footfalls fade and echoes stir
amongst fractured realities and dreams deferred
Shadows loom...expand... make their mark
forsaking the light to birth the dark.

As darkness falls, as shadows lie
as cold winds blow, and devil's rise,
for those who listen will hear the call,
of sinister whispers, shrieks, and bawls.

Do not fret, do not fear
these shadows whisper, " Come near, come here..."
Their voices linger, their voices yearn
gnarled fingers reach, eager for their turn.


They wish to ******, they wish to take
to swipe, to steal... to alienate.
dragging tortured souls down boundless wells,
into the deepest chasms, the darkest hells.

Void of life, void of light
endless, eternal, forsaken night.
A haven for those who dwell below...
Within the Sanctuary
of Shadows...
