The Shadows Maja Wyroslak The shadows lurk throughout the town Building to building, soul to soul. They all seem to wear a frown; Gaining control is their goal. The shadows lurk around the city Home to home, husband or wife. They seem to have no pity About wrecking somebody’s life. They take the young and the old, The shadows are randomly picking. But nobody is told, When your clock will stop ticking. They consume your entire body; Your heart will stop beating. It will eventually happen to everybody, But until then we must keep living. 67
