That slim, pale thing

can only hide,

she's too scared of coming out of her hole.

Once the darkness was just around her,

now she is darkness.

She can't come out of there,

they are bounded,

she cannot see in the light,

not anymore.

Light is scary,

others could see her,

they could define her,

see her real shape.

They mustn't,

she cannot let them do it,

it would be too painful.
