The Monster in my Room

I am by myself in these moonlit grounds,
As the silent air is broken by the eerie sounds.
Huddling in fear under the sheets on my bed,
I hope the monster is just images in my head.
Shrouded in a confined, dimly lit space;
Tears slowly flow from my petrified face.

My heart is racing so fast it's all I can hear,
Teddy Bear please help me conquer my fears.
The monster's shadow moves across the light,
It soon becomes a never-ending night.
Suddenly the figure disappears as quickly as it came,
And all I can hear is the air whispering my name.

Removing the sheets that saved me yet once more,
I look around the room and make a run for the door.
Running straight towards my parents bedroom,
Cause their loving words can save me from my doom.
Lunging into their warm and loving bed,
The thoughts of fears I no longer dread.

Snuggling close, they hug me back,
I now feel safe; from any monsters attack.
Drifting back to sleep, in my mother's arms,
With her and Dad I know I can come to no harm.
