What happens when our eyes close?
What happens to our room?
Out creeps a little monster
From underneath your dreams.

Your eyes are closed, your slowly breathing
Out and in, in and out
While all around you things
Are creeping
In the dark.

Out of your closet comes,
A dark figure, hooded and screaming
Silently.
Silently he comes toward you
Towards your bed, he’s creeping.
Creeping slowly coming, will you see him?

Out of the darkness forms
A pale grey creature
A nightmare in the beginning, now a
Terror for the horror.

Opening your eyes
You realize
You can’t see, so
The darkness continues,
The creatures keep on coming
Back for more. They want a piece of you
What now? What can it be?

Screaming out in fear, you realize
You can’t speak.
The darkness continues.

Clawing out to tame the beasts, you realize
You can’t move.
The darkness continues.
