Sane

Nightmares

Turn off the lights,

Crawl in the bed.

Totally clueless,

To what's in your head.

No warning made,

No caution bade.

Creeping now, set free at last,

The demons shriek, you're fading fast.

All around you, darkness falls,

Reaching for you, terror calls.

Something there behind your back,

Hunting you for tasty snack.

Monster hidden out of sight,

Make you scream from pure, stark fright.

All the madness in your mind,

Enters this world at one time.

When the shadows close you in,

Then, my dear, the nightmares win.
