      We all have something we are afraid of, either it’s the common fear of a snake, or spider to be alone or to be useless. Some may even fear their own shadow. But I am not afraid of any of these. The demon in my nightmares stalks me, night and day, night and day. She circles me in my sleep, prowling around my bed as I cower under my covers. Amber orbs watching me in the darkness, fangs gleaming in the flash of the nightlight. I call her a demon but really she is marvelous she is unique, exquisite, a master of her art. Her jet-black coat is a mask in the shadows, snow colored whiskers sensing her prey –my- fear. Her presence makes my heart shake, my knees buckle, I’m a servant to her desires, to her every whim… In my mind she’s an imminent menace, a deathly terror I can not flee. Because as much as I fear her very existence, I love her with all my heart, with all my being. She purrs her irresistible song into my ears, my heart. and I’m left powerless to everything she does.

My entry to :iconwriters--club:s yearly Writing tournament

Round one: Imminent Menace.
Word count: 192
Line count: 23
Paragraphs: 4

Hope you can tell what exacting this 'fear' is, I personally think it's as clear as day but if you don't know what it is let your imagination craft it into something for yourself. :D
And no, I really don't fear this, just made for a good poem for this prompt for the tournament.
Wish me luck!
