Shadow Monsters.

I recognize those ghastly Shadow Monsters, since babyhood. They're very frightening. Really, they are. They used to give me hiccups and make me wet my pillow, every single time. I was intensely small back then, enveloping an even smaller heart. Me. Yes, I've always been that way. Why, I always had my mother around to pacify me at such times. She would scare away those Monsters.
Only it remains as an ungranted wish anymore, to have time slaved.

Time is deceiving. It once, sends you upon the seventh sky and portrays sparkly and such dramatic illusions, that within them you forget. Forget that from the skies and the glory; where you would land, would be the in the thorny arms of the land of the blood thirsty. Where nothing works. And neither does anything pay.
You know. I still witness those Shadow Monsters, and they have gone limitlessly wild now. Why so? Because they know, that time does not help me. And so, I stand as a loner. 
My mommy? Nah, she wouldn't scare them away this time.
