Author's Notes : I wrote this poem in one of my college classes. It's about me meeting the God of Death, Ryuk. Originally, this poem didn't have a title but as a matter of fact I decided, tonight, that I'd call it 'Shadow'. For it says it all. :) Plus ! This is my first fanfiction on here ! :D Cheers ! More to come soon ! Yeahhh !

Thank you,

have fun,

and comment please. :)

It's always appreciated to know if other people liked this. :) ;)

Shadow

There was a shadow

On a roof top

It looked at me

as I was passing by

I didn't think that in

the darkness of the night I'd see it

But I did

And it was dark, it was big

it was monstruous and villain !

Could I tell you more ?

I tried to start walking

'Cause I had stopped because of my sudden fear

Mixed with curiosity

And the fact that I wanted to get away from this thing

Pushed my feet harder and faster to the front

I thought I couldn't see the sun nevermore

Going faster and faster

I couldn't feel it anymore

Then I stopped

Feet away from the border of the day

I turned to cross the road and lift a foot

I turned to face the day

Everything in the air stopped

Then it descended upon me.
