It seems so childish; so stupid. Afraid of the dark? It's something you're afraid of when you're four. I'm not saying that I'm afraid of the dark. It's the things that can be hiding in the shadows, waiting to pounce; the things that I can't see in the dark. The things that I can't protect myself from. That's what I fear. Not being able to see what's right in front of me. Not being able to see those mysterious shapes, lurking, in the dark.
