Shadows

Do the shadows of night, slither across your floor?
And dance in the corners of the room.
Do they rise, and fall,
Creep, and crawl,
Or shiver, and quake beside you?

Do the shadows of night, skulk beneath your bed?
And watch over you as you sleep.
Do they sneek, and prowl,
Hiss, and yowl,
Or lie in wait, beside you?

Did the shadows of night, flee away from the sight?
And stay oway forever...
Or did they roar, and writhe,
Squirm, and thrieve,
Or thrash, and snarl beside you?
