The whispers of insomnia
Keep me awake through the night
Allowing shadows to attack in the dark
The slamming of shutters
And creaking of trees
Leave me to lay
In such a freight
Oh, what a sleepless night

© Leah P., Hamburg, MI

what happens in the night, no one knows, is that just a shadow or a man below?
