Inevitable

From out of the shadows
He beckons me
Inviting me to join him
I decline

From around every corner
He watches me
To see if I am ready
I am not

Deep in the darkness of the night
He stalks me
Trying to draw me near
I simply ignore him

In the dark recesses of my brain
He invades me
He draws upon my fears
I cannot shut him out

With every breath, I am closer to him
Closer than I care to be
Every blink of my eye
He is there

Looming silently
Watching intently
Knowing that one day
I will be his

I have no choice
I will belong to him eventually
But for the time being
I choose to live.
