aren't you afraid at all?
the monsters under the bed
the nightmares to be seen
aren't you afraid of them all?
aren't you afraid of the tiny whispers
telling you to break
telling you to fall?
aren't you afraid of what you saw?
aren't you afraid of the gnarling fangs?
they wait and hide in the shadows
until someone weak stands
aren't you afraid of the darkness yet to befall?
aren't you afraid, dearest?
you're supposed to despise them all.
you're supposed to be the same
but you're nothing like them at all
- but darling, you are different
