Description
Night time fears by SR Hulley
Sweet darkness
Decending down
Deep, deep
into my soul
Shrug away
Nightmares brewing
Menacing imps
taking their toll
Cobwebs forming
Cotton wool balls
Soft, fluffy
Claustrophobic as hell
Stuffed in my nose
Ears, mouth and throat
Turning my dreams
To an internal cell
Sometimes insomnia
Is freedom to me
It captures the nightmares
And sets me free
But then again
As alertness does flee
The sticks at the windows
Makes a trembling knee
It's not only in sleep
That the fears take hold
It's the dark places and noises
For the three year old!

Great poem - I didn't see the last line coming - the three-year-old - it would be true for so many older people too!

It was definitely a mix of both old and young
Insomnia for me and imps for my grandson

Like it.. the surprise is at the end. I was thinking an adult for some reason, but in fact, the night time fears are definitely that of a 3 year old.
Clever little sausage ain't ya!

LOL.. I love little 'spanners in the works'
Hope you are well!
