In the Dark

In the Dark

I really scared

I want my mama to sleep with me

All night long

Daddy too

And Baby Stella

Then I not be scared

All night long

I not like the bad things

At night in the dark

I cannot see them anymore

Monsters

Black, claws, tear you away

A meat dinosaur steps on the roof

I call for mama again

It is dark outside

Light inside the kitchen and wrapped

In mama’s bathrobe

Reading storybooks

Waiting for sleep
