Original poem-

The mind's eye blinded by your fears
So afraid, so alone
Lost in the wake of darkness
You long for day to break
For the sun to shine through
An eerie mist hangs in the air like thick clouds in the sky
Track abandoned from view
Decomposing bodies lurking in silent waters deep
Where the sea urchins eat away at the corpses left to float down stream
Where the river meets the sea
Waves crashing
Lightning strikes, lighting up the skies
Thunder crashes
You hear the deafening roar
Stricken from view so far as the eye can see
The moonlight it disappears for the spirits in our tracks
Starlight fading
The rain it hammers down pelting on your skin
Hail hail, the storm now breaks through
The wind it blows howling softly through the night
As the wolves they run in packs on the trail for fresh blood
Faint calls from a distance
You hear the night owls singing high above
In the shelter of the trees
Their branches dancing with the wind
You hear the rustling of the leaves
Fiery eyes they glare
Shining from the depths of darkness
They watch your every move in anticipation
Fire flies burning up the skies
You hear the siren's call
In the midst of the forest your worst nightmare has now become the truth
So lost and afraid
Your face a silhouette by the roaring fire
You light your way
With no one to lead and no one to follow
So alone in the sleepy hollow
Where the darkness it reigns
And in sadness you wallow.
