what am i?
that i should lurk in the dark?

Am i a bat?
who only knows the dark?

am i a peice of furniture?
used by human beings for their wants?

am i a human?
only knowing that life will end?

no, i am shadows.
when light comes i shall be no more.

i am explicitly, perfectly, abnoramaly me.
and that is all i have to offer

i like shadows, they are mysterious, and if your quiet enough, you will hear them speak.
