Little girl in the dark, with covers up to her chin. Eyes wide open, heart pounding. Don't go to sleep, it will get you! She strains to hear it coming. Make sure all is covered but the face. For I must see what is going to get me! If I don't move or hardly breath, maybe it won't see or hear me....
What is that in the closet?! Eyes straining to see the horror that is surly going to get me. Don't move, Don't breath! Don't let your foot fall to the edge, he will grab you and pull you down. Keep your hands covered, because he waits under the bed.
NO! you can't call your mommy. Stay quiet little one, for he will get you!
I see it in the closet. I see it moving towards me. My heart beats so fast. Oh No! I hear it breathing. Was that the closet door? A silent scream strains. Shhh Shush! He's coming now.
Don't close your eyes,, you need to see it coming!
Little girl in the dark. All covered in blankets. So frightened, waiting for it. No moving, no breathing, NO crying! For then it will get you.
Little girl in the dark, so tired. My eyes are so heavy, but I can't sleep, for it will know and come for me. Oh God! help me! I am falling, falling asleep. And it is coming, for I have fallen asleep!!
I always woke up unhurt in the morning but suffered every night, the same horror.
