The Dark Figure

The figure was completely black, almost like a black hole, a thick and inky nothingness, but still molded in the figure of a man.I didn’t know who or what it was, but he looked slightly familiar, as if he were someone I should instinctively know. As the realization set in, I remember being so afraid that I couldn’t make a sound. Until the Dark figure moved away from me. I tried to explain what had happen that day, but no one believed me.”What ever it was I knew it was coming for me.” I told my friends and they just laughed.I told my parents they said , it was only a nightmare. I tried to explain that I was wide awake. I had not fallen a sleep yet. What I saw was very real. Still, no matter what I said, they just wouldn’t believe me. I kept looking out of the window, waiting for him to make another appearance, but the manly shaped figure never did. I began to think maybe they were right. I was really sensitive then. I was also exploring in the world of drugs. What did I know? Maybe the drugs made me hallucinate. In truth I do not believe that. I believe it was something. What it was? I do not know. Why I saw it? I do not know. Will I ever see it again? There is a possibility. So, I started thinking about that apparition the other night. That is why I am writing this. What had made me believe that the strange apparition was after me? I thought about it for awhile. I still can’t come up with a reason. Maybe one day that strange dark figure will come for me again. Perhaps it will lead me to the cross roads of life and death.
