The Grim Night Reaps Fears.
Wakened
A Sleeping Child Walks
Stalking Comfort In The Night
Searching Out Warmth
To Shake Shadows And Displace Fears:
To Fill The Darkness With Dreamless Sleep.
A Trembling Light Nudges The Door Ajar
Sounds Stir
And An Outstretched Arm Beckons In.
The Bed Whispers Welcome
As Death’s Dark Hand Pulls Back The Downy Warmth
And In Beside It Creeps.
A Cold Slab Reckoning Reaches Out
And The Grim Night Reaps
