Darkness had the power
to amplify senses
which sometimes we opt not to.
Our hearing becomes sharp
alert to a pin drop
to the point of panic.
The smell becomes stronger
and our blind minds go wild
with the probabilities of the unknown.
Maybe it's a self-inflicted fright
but not tonight.
Tonight, there's a hunt in the dark
and I'm the prey.
