Childish Fear

Darkness is my fear,
my mind plays tricks on me.

Is that something in the corner looking 
at me.

Up under the covers, i cower in fear,feels like somethings
watching me, nearer and nearer.

Maybe under my bed so i don't drag my feet.

Did i hear something, what was that, somethings in my closet ready to attack.

Something is going to get me so i scream, jump off my bed to the light switch 
in one leap,turn on the lights, but to my surprise, nothings there
but me scared of me.
