He is the shadow that you think is your own.
Following your every step and finding out your favorite place.
He has got your soul in a case and he has got your smile in his mind.
He knows the darkest thoughts, not just of you, but the entire world.
He is a man not to be reckoned with in the latest nights.
If the stars came out, his eyes would still be brighter.
Beware his voice for it is the hypnotizing melody of midnight.
Snaps his fingers and you will be finding yourself as his army.
When he walks, it is through the grace of the storm.
Lighting runs through his blood and thunder drives his heart.
The pearl scar on his face is a sign of who he has become.
He has been thrown to the wolves and he will take you down too.
Let me tell you the tale of the man who has seen your bad dream.
Let me introduce you to the prince of darkness.

That is a high compliment – Steven King is a clever author and it’s funny since I took a quiz when I was younger and Steven King was my twin author.

Wow! That is interesting. You must have a touch of the creative writing horror gene in you. I really got a scary vibe from this poem but in a good way!

It could be. I’ve always had a taste for the strange. Tim Burton films are a favorite of mine. Haha, thank you.

Tim Burton, yes! That sure is a bit of difference or strangeness. And that kind of brings a unique sensibility to your writing. Awesome.
