hiding in the darkness presented by night
they stick to the shadows avoiding all light
thats when the creatures come out to play
and dissapear once again when it turns to day
everyone's worst fears are laid out to see
you do yourself no good trying to run and flee
you all seem to suffer from such a tragic fate
but know you're the one who took the bait
accept from life what has been dealt to you
as with the horrors we all must go through
all the disturbing images we wish to forget
and the frightening sights that make us all frett
trust when i say that we're not alone
their there among us with lives of their own
you're all just too scared to accept that fact
so i should warn you now to watch your back

Cute entry! I know this is talking about spirits, or ghosts, but it also has a nice reference to life. For someone of your age, 15 right? I think this is a very good write. However, you need to watch your spelling. Try to remember your spell check button! It's a great friend for writers! I like your rhyme, but I think I should remind you, you don't need to rhyme all the time. Sometimes it's okay to let it be free verse also.
Thanks for your entry! Best in the contest, and on the board too! Nice write!
