Night
by: Aaron Burke
 
 
The night surrounds me,
Conceals me from the evil,
Like a blanket around me.
I feel death hidden in the dark,
Ready to take me away,
But it never does.
 
 
The eerie feeling of something,
Someone following me grasps at me.
I turn to see what it is,
But I can't see it,
I'm blind now.
 
 
What can I do about these ghosts?
Run! Run! Run!
It doesn't work.
There is only one thing I can do,
Conceal myself in this everflowing blanket,
And wait for the light to overcome this deep darkness.
