Night has turned its back on me
its now a scary time
I shiver just like a child
and I dont know why
every noise makes me jump
I need somebody here
to talk to me or hold me close
to drive away the fear
darkness floats
throughout the air
in the closet, in corners
it lingers there
It makes me feel
so cold, so small
I start to imagine things
out in the hall
I wish for the sun
wish for more light
hope that everything
will be alright
pray to God
as under covers I hide
childlike protection
I close my eyes inside
wish for the morning
wish for someone
to come in save me
to hurry... to run
The dark is
no longer my friend
I hope that soon
the night will end
