Lights Out

When the lights start to flicker
She knows that lights are about to go off
As soon as they go out
She sits in a corner in her room
She has no protection from the lights
When the lights go out she began to whimper
What does she do?
She's scared to even step out her room
As soon as the lights come back on 
She's not scared at all
The lights keep her safe 
When the lights start to flicker 
She hides every time
