Childhood Terrors

Posted on 05/13/2025 by admin

Fears of the children’s nightmares
Enveloping shadows appear to hide
Tearing to pieces all their cares.
Surreal Bogeyman claw and thrive

Enveloping shadows appear to hide
Drawn deep in despair
Surreal Bogeyman claw and thrive
Grasping at the fetid air

Drawn deep in despair
The banshee wails another groan
Grasping at the fetid air
Feeling dread as cold as stone

A banshee wails another groan
Fears of the children’s nightmares
Feeling dread as cold as stone
Tearing to pieces all their cares.
