Dark Nights

yet I must face all of my fears.

I'll not cower under the blankets,

as the scary midnight hour nears.

I cannot put this off any longer,

I must face the demons tonight.

No more running away to hide,

I refuse to give in to my fright.

Once the darkness finally arrives,

the eerie whispers will soon follow.

This time I will chase them away,

my terror I will bravely swallow.

I will banish all of the demons,

no longer let them rule my life.

I will be happy and free at last,not overcome by worry and strife.
