The Night Takes Over

The day, glorious as ever!
The sun, how it shines upon this Earth!
Laying and basking in the sun,
Free as a bird!
The joyous laughter of children all around!
We laugh all day!
Till the night comes..
The night has not been kind.
Never kind to a girl like me.
As the sun sets the fears collide.
That last bit of happiness..
Completely swept away..
I creep up in to my haven.
A haven where I should be safe.
Sadly the night lurks here as well.
It crawls over every inch of my room.
The darkness swirls into a black sky.
Leaving me alone and afraid.
The sounds of the creatures,
That dwell in this place.
Utilizing the dark,
Having their malicious fun.
The midnight sky washes over me,
With a blanket of fear..
I can't move, not even an inch.
For they may come after me.
And a girl like me..
Could never handle what lies..
On the outside world of darkness.
Listening and waiting for the light.
I toss and I turn
I burry my face into the comfort,
The only comfort I have..
I cry and I plead.
"Take these fears away!"
The pain I endure
Cast away, far into the night.
The light starts to rise,
Sending the evil back to hide.
I relax and look around.
I am safe for another day.
For who knows what will come...
In the darkness tonight.
