I see him standing there
In the shadows
Always lurking in the darkest corners
But never seeing, who he is…
Why can’t I see his face?
Why does he hide from me?
And why do I feel terrified when he’s around
Should I be scared?
My blood pumps deeper and darker
As I feel his hands reaching for me
His icy fingers, gripping my heart
Squeezing tightly, till the pain almost makes me faint
He release his grip on me
And I hear him whisper as he returns to the shadows
“One day I will be in control…”

Awesome! Aren't we all dreading that moment when we completely lose control?
