night time, bedtime

When you’re little,

night time are scary because there are monsters hiding right under the bed.

But when you get older,

the monsters are different - loneliness and regret.

Although we’re older and wiser,

We still find yourselves scared of the dark.

 

Sleep - it’s the easiest thing to do.

You just, close your eyes.

 

For so many of us, however;

Sleep seems out of our grasp.

 

We want it,

but we don’t know how to get it.

 

Once we faced our demons and fears,

and turn to each other for help.

Night time isn’t so scary,

Because we are all alone in the dark.

  1. I agree to all things you mentioned except for the very last sentence 'Because we are all alone in the dark'.
    Not that we are all alone, it's just that sometimes we don't know who's standing beside you until you feel its existence.
