Nights

From monsters under my bed
to monsters in my head,
it’s always been the nights
that have been the scariest.

Getting accustomed to it
as we grew older and mature
was all but a big deceiving lie.

From the darkness of the room
to the claustrophobic emotions & thoughts,
the fears only elevated;
and continue to haunt me even now,
only in a different form.

As the fears intensify
and there seems to be no alternative,
let’s just find a way
to walk right past the night,
and find our way back
to the comfort of the day?
