Shadows in my dream

I was sleeping the first time
That I saw the Shadows.
The night was quiet
But the beat of my heart was loud

The shadows were coming for me
Swallowing my face
I woke up with my mother's arms
Holding me strong as she could
She said: "It's just a dream, my little boy"

But unfortunately,
Some years after that night
The Shadows would appear not only in my dreams
