what a child fears becomes
his reality in the dark of night
monsters take flight
they hide in the closet causing such fright
thoughts of the boogieman
run through a child’s head
the slightest sound heard could
be him lurking beneath the bed
shadows turn into witches
who cast evil spells
or gangsters who grab him
threatening him with hell
sleepless he awaits daylight
when all will be well
all the creepy monsters gone
along with the witches spells
