CHAPTER TWO: Enter the Shadow

[Spoken Word]
The little girl had never seen her shadow before
As a matter of fact, the little girl had never seen anything at all
She was born completely blind
Her own reflection a mystery to her
All the same, when her shadow began to speak to her
A chilling sense of familiarity trickled down her spine
"Hello, little one," the shadow said
Its voice as soft as velvet
"Hello," the girl repliеd
"Do you know me?" The shadow asked
"Arе you my shadow?"
"Good, very good
You see, my child
I've been alone in the dark for so very long, just like you
I was wondering if, would it bother you if
Could I come out and play?" The shadow asked
