Bumps in the Night + Till Light

A Poem by grayday104

Bumps in The Night with it's sequel Till Light

If monsters lie under the bed
then what is this beast that dwells in my head?
Why does this ghastly ghoul haunt me so?
And must I bear more pain then permitted to show
why in the dark do I cower in fright?
Of the thing that goes bump in the night?
Once again night is near
Daylight ends and starts my fear

I am the baron of the sunset
Chill to your neck
Cold in your sweat
Blistering terror making you wet
Stay in the light or you'll regret
Bumps in the night
And the monsters you've met

Sanctuary the sweet sun ray
Take the night and make it all okay
Each day a gift by night I fall
Boogies bumps and a bedtime brawl

Sleepy hollows and midnight frights
My world burns by candle light
Coward in a corner ghostly white
Waiting for the wake of light
Daylight comes and all is right
Till the dark and my dread takes life

TILL LIGHT
I am the reason the lights stay on
I am the horror that haunts before dawn
The peril of night the daylight's fright
Brace yourself you've got till light

Enraged the monster I fear from my bed
Tic tic tic the sound of my dread

A haunting foe I've arranged my woe
In search of my light before day's glow
The b*****d his dark my missing heart
Now i have till daybreak starts

Daylight looms tic tic tic as his clock ends soon
I loved her like light and brought her a tomb
Indulged in the light and prompted his wrath
Now at his mercy for my other half

I scourged his reign and brought me pain
Boogies,bumps, and my bedtime bane
