The Shadow
What’s that shadow lurking in my room?
you and I might not see her all the time but let me tell you she’s there.
I’m afraid to open my eyes
but I take a deep breath and open my eyes
and she’s gone
she is afraid of me.
So I say, “it’s ok” and she says “ok” with a voice as soft as the winter snow.
But my brother was asleep so he could not hear any of this.
I went to get out of my bed
and she ran
She ran away from me.
Then I hear someone calling my name
“wake up Davy wake up!”
