Satisfied?

I walk down the street

The darkness surrounds me;

I creep into the shadows

Unseen by all around,

Just hidden,

Awaiting my moment.

I slither across the path

In a sibilant silence,

Back into the shadows.

There before me, I see it,

 I see the way,

The way back.

Through the gate I slide,

Silence is all around.

The cemetery is there,

I see my home,

Hidden from all.

I creep into my coffin

Just as daylight breaks,

I lay there at peace

Awaiting the darkness once more,

Where maybe tonight,

My hunger will be satisfied.
