A shadow of he

A boy trying to face the fear of having to deal with justice.

It was a dark, lifeless night,
rain drops met the ground.
I was afraid and closed my eyes with all my might,
looked for help, but my cover is all I found.

Staring into the unforgiving darkness,
A unfamiliar noise frightened me.
Thought soon I could be a carcass,
I saw a shadow of he.

I feared and he I hid from,
I layed there under.
I was uncovered, fully numb,
I heard a loud noise similar to thunder.

It shook me, it was to fear,
Could not hide, could not run.
This shadow of he, he was near,
I begged for the day and the sun.

I looked to my side,
A shadow of he I could see.
Afraid, I still realized I could not hide,
could only face, and now I'm free.
