Ever seen the shadow of death?
ever seen it, running across the lawn from the kitchen window?
well, I have
slow motion like it was in no hurry
to get to where it was meant to be?
a shadow so visual
it looked as if it was chasing someone?
arms out hoping to catch them?
i\'ve seen it quite a few times now
same shadow, different shape
different places
I\'ve seen an Angel too
well, the presence of one at least
that was a different
type of shadow
she brought a sense of courage
wings, gloriously shaped
I could never mistake her
I don\'t feel the need
to question why they come?
I already know, let\'s call it intuition?
and if you\'re wondering
does the shadow of death ever frighten me?
I can honestly say, no
it doesn\'t, it\'s not how it\'s portrayed in the horror films
it\'s peaceful, just like the shadow of my Angel
why do they come?
I believe they visit to leave a message
they have a job to do
messengers of sorts?
when the shadows come calling.
