Hiding in the Shadows.

Matthew Roberts

Stay still, stay quiet
I mouthed to her from my
hiding place.
She looked at me
with a still, calm face.
She smiled
but had death in her eyes.
Instead of hiding, scared in
the shadows, she stepped out
and with open arms
embraced the monster as
it began to eat her alive.
