Safety In The Night

This just about describes every night in my house ._.

My lamp;
I turned it off after a long night of staying up. Five seconds after laying down, it flashed on then quickly went off. So I just thought I hadn't turned it off properly, maybe the switch got stuck in an awkward position? I turned it on, then made sure it was off correctly. I led down again. About ten seconds later, it legit turns on and doesn't go off. Nothing could've turned it on. I had to get up and turn it off.

I love the thought,
Of my lucid dreams,
But once they perish,
I’m only left to scream.
When lights flicker on and off,
And I just feel so lost,
Wondering what has happened,
To me.

But you know,
I’m not afraid of the night,
I just feel more safer,
When I feel the sun’s light.
When crazy sounds,
Are made around my bed,
I’m left wondering,
If it’s just my own head.
Please keep me safe,
I’ll cuddle you tight.
Safe in your arms at night.

When I hear laughter,
But there’s no apparition.
I am left curious,
If it’s my own superstition.
With no colours left,
But black.
Scared with shivers,
Creeping down my back.
Wondering what has happened,
To me.
Why me?
Just me?
Oh please,
Set my confidence free.

But you know,
I’m not afraid of the night,
I just feel more safer,
When I feel the sun’s light.
When crazy sounds,
Are made around my bed,
I’m left wondering,
If it’s just my own head.
Please keep me safe,
I’ll cuddle you tight.
Safe in your arms at night.


Of course I do believe in ghosts,
And spirits of the past.
But for someone of my age,
This is happening all too fast.
It might be just a hoax,
One of those silly jokes.
But I can’t see how,
Because here and now,
I know I’ve always been,
The only one here in the room.

But you know,
I’m not afraid of the night,
I just feel more safer,
When I feel the sun’s light.
When crazy sounds,
Are made around my bed,
I’m left wondering,
If it’s just my own head.
Please keep me safe,
I’ll cuddle you tight.
No longer in your arms at night.
