A Bad Night

The clouds are so dark 
I think its going to rain 
I see something coming 
its the sight of pain. 
I hear a loud noise 
it sounds like thunder 
I go to my bed 
and climb up under. 
Theres a flash of light 
that brightened up the sky 
I said to myself 
i'm not ready to die. 
The noise is gone 
its fading away 
beneath my bed is warm 
so I think ill stay. 
Later in the night 
it starts to get cold 
I think ill find a blanket 
thats thick and bold. 
I got up in bed 
covered my face 
fell asleep quickly 
bundled in place.
