The crickets chirp when it gets dark
I get on the bed before the dogs bark
Every night I shiver when I hear the silence
It feels like the ghosts are getting an alliance
My lips shiver from the freezing air
I wrap my blanket around with care
It feels like someone is giving me a stare
When I take out the blanket, no one is there
As the night pass I hear the clock ticking
the light outside feels like it's blinking
I try to stay still in hope that the unknown doesn't get me
But despite my efforts it doesn't hide under a tree
The room fills up with sunlight
And I realize it is over
But there was no sign of fight
I was sure it was waiting to takeover
To be sure I check under my bed
but no one was there
where did it go
I was sure it was somewhere there
I look and look until I hurt my hip joint
Maybe it went to another location
but at last I realize there was no point
As the monster was only a pigment of my imagination
