While You Sleep

Please don’t go,
Slipping quietly into the night
No one knows as I do
The silent threshold,
Will you return?
Will you awaken for me
When the shadows come grasping?
Will you protect me
When I hold a vanishing light?
Dark creeping fingers
Brushing along the sides
An itch, a twitch, a whip around
A whisper, my name
Always in the shadows
A hand behind my back
To check for daggers sure
Because you aren’t here
Your eye has closed to me
Awaken, there’s still time
Tick tock, the witching hour
But oh I don’t believe
Only a theist in darkness,
But where is my shiny armored god?
Is he sleeping too?
With dawn, a reawaken of my soul
But for now unprotected
A castle siege, thrones asleep
As castle watch alerting nightly stones
But who will protect me,
The stone who cannot sleep
Who fears the darkness creeps
Something happens
When you’re not looking
Eyes shut, you are protected
But wide awake,
Who will protect me?

A wonderful description of a fear of many yet are afraid to admit. Your words bring a heavy darkness with a glimmer of light peeking through for security.
The imagery is outstanding here. Well written my friend.
take care
