Don't be afraid of the dark

There are times it would be easier to be a kid again.

There is never a problem that mom and dad couldn't fix.

 

There are times I wish I could be a kid again.

There are nights I want so badly to run to their room and feel safe.

 

There nights I wake up terrified.

There are times I can't get the images out of my head.

 

There are times I lie awake.

There are times I am afraid to go back to sleep.

 

There are days I envy younger kids.
