    Shadow Man.

    Shadow man.



    Tortured soul waiting to be redeemed
    Why?, one can not tell but only dream

    footsteps creeking, shadows moving around
    Soul sinking, he looks to turn my smile upside down
    Glimpses of him outside my door watching
    Chase as he runs to the basement and the door locking
    He plays games, i run to the front door but noone knocking
    Hearing thumps on the roof, as if someone was hopping
    I know his presence as he knows of mine
    As long as he does'nt touch me, i don't mind
    Annoyed though i am, i must remember that he's lonely
    Left behind, noone there for him, living alone in creaks
    Walking up and down my hallway restless and ancious
    I'm wanting to scream, but i must show my patience
    Even though frustrations are corrupting, i must stay cool
    Somethings wrong, an evil presence enters my room
    Not him, but another demented soul filled with anger
    Wondering, but not being smart enough to sense the danger
    Resting, but should' ve acted, too late as i was being strangled
    Not seeing it, but feeling its hands untill my arms dangled

    Not dead, just sleep as i awake from the nightmare
    Looking up, as to what i saw i could only stare

    Seeing him standing there, 6' 0 ft. high
    I look hard, but not seeing his eyes
    As he dissapates waving goodbye, untill next time....

    Re: Shadow Man.

    Overall this seemed a bit newbish coming from you..there were grammatical errors that threw the read off..I mean you did good and maybe one of your better writes flow wise...but I think you should try writing your pieces in MS word...to get rid of typos and grammatical errors..it helps alot..but as far as this concept and take I've seen it a bit even tried it myself but it just seems that you didn't really try anything creative to add a new spin it was kinda like the old black shoes under the bed and demons come type of thing..but still made for a aiight read...you still need to elevate in certain areas...such as multi's and internals..but you'll grow as you continue to write..

    yo this was decent man.... flow was mostly good, vocab was decent
    storyline i thought could've had a bit more to it though..
    like maybe the shadow man could've done a bit more, or put up a bit more of a scary image to add to the intensity of the piece, coz like it was a good idea that would of been more intense with a bit more imagination and 'creative thinking' involved,
    still was a smooth read, so yea well decent

    overall i have to agree with Ntalek.. you couldve been a little
    more creative. you still need to elevate in certain
    areas. for the most part the flow was decent. and it
    was an alright read if asked. try to add a little more
    imagination next time. bring the piece to life... hopefully
    ill read more from you soon..

    I really liked this rhyme some heads said you could used more imagery but I think you wanted the readers to use their imagination.
    It was tight cause shadows make objects appear larger and i liked how you were like he was towering at 6'0......shadows usually appear huge.
    maybe I'm overanalyzing....

    Unlike Ntalek I was feeling this concept but wasn't feeling the rhyme scheme so much....
    They say this concept is played but I hadn't really seen it done before but whatever.
