it cant be a shadow because humans dont need it and it can not kill us. I think it might be sunlight but we do not fear it. . . im not really sure.

No Vampire, it is a mirror. That's the thing you have to look through if you want to look for and aft simultaneously. ... and it is not my friend Melancholy

As the puzzle's creator I can definately say that it is a Vampire. The first verse refers to a mirror but only to say that you can't see Vampire's in mirrors because they have no reflection.

its a vampire
the mirror reference is because you are looking forward (into the mirror) and back (the reflection) and the vampire cannot be seen in a reflection even if he is behind you.
The rest is all pretty obvious

Its definately a vampire

OK I have one:

If you feel me in your past
Thats because im want to last
Im a lingering poor malady
With no apparent remedy
And only lack of parody
Can ever hope to comfort me.

What am I?

The first verse sounds like it could be "nothing", but then it changes.
No relevance to this post, just my $0.02

Please note, there is already a thread with this exact same topic, a solution and comments from the puzzle creator. We like to keep things simple, so please check that the puzzle you are commenting on doesn't already have a thread in this forum. This thread will probably be closed so that there's only one.

Don't despair. You're always welcome to post in the other thread.

Have fun!
