Crying of fear
In the dark
Hurry and run
Says my heart.
But I lie there
Too scared to scream
Praying so hard
That it’s just a dream.
Then I see the shadow
Slowly moving outside
I want to get up
And find a place to hide.
I gather up the courage
And yell, Please help me!
They quickly run away
As I can plainly see.
A bunch of questions
Everyone did ask
I don’t know the answers
It happened so fast.
Feeling a little more brave
Not wanting to show fear
I act big and bad
Saying, They better not come back here!
The next night at supper
After I took my last bite
I got up from the table and said,
Who’s sleeping with me tonight?
