Fright @ night

NafisaSB

Many a night as I lie in bed

There come few thoughts that fill me with dread

Will I wake up tomorrow

Will my health still be good?

Will the events go as scheduled

Or will I have to sit and brood ?

I toss and I turn

As the thoughts slowly churn

I break in a cold sweat

I slowly fume and fret..

I fear the roof could fall

That calamity may soon strike [- so]

I will look for cracks in the wall

I will check the wheels on my bike

My premonition works overtime

It even disturbs my dreams

I shake and shudder with fright

The tears do gently stream..

Till – slowly sleep envelops me

No longer the fears do tax

I have overcome these nasty thoughts

I breathe deeply, and relax
