Night Terrors

Night Terrors

 

Before I could really stand

I sat upon my bed

With horrors still in my mind

As I tried to clear my head

 

I had experienced a terror

With demons all around

And had feelings there of doom

With a cacophony of sounds

 

There were the creepy others

and evil things that crept

My nights were filled with horror

And they scared me half to death

 

My family all gathered

There to tend to me

And I learned they too had battled

With terrors in their sleep

 

Since then I\'ve lived my days

And have dreamed a little too

They\'re the most peaceful things

And I pray they each come true

 

My family heard my call

And knew what terror was like

And I thank them in my heart

That they helped me sleep the night
