Night, as I see it



Every day, when the sun goes down
The lord of the night bears the crown
His so-called light, isn't very bright
Not like the day, it ain't a pretty sight

Darkness of night, is what I fear the most
it's the portal, for one and every ghost
They come, they hunt and they rule
the kingdom of souls, which is very cruel

Night is the time that daemons invade
to gulp the light that slowly slowly fade
Dwarves come out in the darkest night
Whatever that shines, leads 'em to a fight

If you wake in a full moon night
You will see a horrifying sight
Creatures with teeth like shears
Crawling down the trees, slowly with tears

This is what a night simply is
A festival for the lost souls it is
For the living, it's a bad dream
No one will hear even if you scream

About this poem

I wrote this poem because I hate night so much. I don't like its darkness. I feel very insecure when i am walking alone in a road in the night.
