At night

At Night

When I'll have to be alone all night at home, I get scared.

When darkness arises, I hear things I wouldn't hear otherwise.

I don't feel like sleeping at those nights.

I hear the spirits of the forest summoning a storm.

And a storm answers the call.

I hear monsters beginning to wake up and howling the storm with the spirits.

Then the monsters get a scent of my fear.

Maybe, if I lay down quietly under the cover, they'll go away.
