A Tale of the Night
Last night I had one of those where I felt restless throughout and didn’t get a good night’s sleep.....
A Tale of the Night
My heart quickens
Fear is heightened
I look behind
I see no one
But there is someone there
Creeping in the shadows
Catching every breath I take
I hide in darkened doorways
Paralysed with foreboding
Footsteps resonate
From nearby streets
Closer and closer
Twist or stick
Do I run
Or remain
In the cover of darkness
Confused and frightened
I stay perfectly still
Awaiting my fate
Is it too late?
Am I going to meet
My maker?
Suddenly without warning
I am shaken
From my slumber
Are you ok darling?
