When the lights go out
And the darkness comes out
Creeping up on the sleeping form
Dreams of darkness it does bring
Her mind is overpowered
The stench of evil strong
There’s a light in the corner
Flickering on and on
There’s a heart in her chest
Beating slower and slower
There’s a tear on her cheek
Shining brighter and brighter.
Darkness and despair
Seep into the still form
Squashing all thoughts of hope
Dallying only long enough
for sadness to bring
The darkness sallies forth, next victim to claim
