The Monster Named Choice
We had our monsters under the bed
They kept us from the shadows of night
From peering in the closet
And walking down the hallway
Now just disguised as thoughts in our heads
They keep us from much uncertainty
From peering into our souls
And living our days with joy
But both paralyze
Steal security
And gift us sleepless nights
Fear has great power
It kills and destroys...
But only if power is granted
