I can't seem to sleep,
I toss and turn all night,
I'm sweating under the covers,
Avoiding the fright.
Am I being watched?
I feel like bait,
Laying in the trap,
While my attacker waits.
I can't close my eyes,
It's everywhere. I look,
I feel empty inside,
My courage, something took.
I'm afraid of the dark,
Many monsters are alive,
Watching you,
Tracking you,
Under your beds, since you were five.
So I'll just have to get through this one spooky night,
I will try my best to avoid this fright.
