Darkness

When you go walking alone in the dark
Sometimes you can feel your heart start beating fast
As your breathing heavy sometimes you run
When you feel like somethings following you,
And with all the sounds you hear,
You never know what could be out there ,
So I hope you are aware that there is 
so many things that creep and crawl around
 in that  pitch black dark  darkness,
Sometimes  its just a shadow,
Sometimes its just a wild animal,
Sometimes you don’t know,
But would you want to see what is out there 
Creeeping around in the dark,
Because it just may make your heart
beat faster,
And as you run it just may creep up past you
So I would rather just know,
and beware that there are so many things lurking around
out in the dark darkness
