My heart beats fast
My palms start to sweat
I can feel the presence
Of an invisible threat
The light goes off
A feeling of dread
Because at last its time
For me to go to bed
My eyes are getting heavy
It's getting hard to fight
They call to me
The creatures of the night
Drifting me to sleep
With their soothing lullaby
I feel so weak and tired
I let out a gentle sigh
Underneath the covers
I fall into sleep
It's too late now
I'm in too deep
The deadly game
Has just begun
Now to save my life
All i can do is run
I feel their claws
Scratch and tear at my skin
The creatures of the night
I know i cant win
They love the sound
Of my tortured cries
As it rises on the wind
Then slowly dies
I manage to get away
Running down an endless hall
Screams from past victims
And blood on the walls
Heavy breathing behind me
The creatures of the night
The chase is on now
Until morning light
They're getting closer
I can feel them near
Hunting me down
Sensing my fear
I come to a door
All bloody and scratched
Panic rises
As i struggle with the latch
At last it opens
Joy bursts inside
Finally Ive found
A safe place to hide
I slam the door behind me
I hear the creatures scream
Oh if only someone
Could wake me from this dream
The door starts to shake
From the other side
I know they wont give up
And there's nowhere else to hide
Fierce like a pack of dogs
Vicious and wild
They like nothing better
Then to taste the blood of a child
They cannot be killed
For they're already dead
They can read your mind
Every thought in your head
The wood starts to crack
They burst into the room
It's all over now
I can feel my doom
The creatures of the night
My skin, their claws scrape
The pain burning
And I cant escape
I close my eyes
And pray for light
To chase away
The creatures of the night
When I open them again
I'm awake from my dream
And in through my window
Sunshine streams
I stare at my arms
New scratches so deep
So much pain caused
When I fall asleep
It's not over
The creatures of the night
Never give up
Once they have you in their sight
For now I've survived
The deadly game
But tomorrow night
It begins again

- Description: I wrote this during my aunt's 5th wedding, I didn't like the guy she was getting married to. He turned out to be gay and only married my aunt because he felt sorry for her. I seriously still hate him. Anyways. Love it, hate it, get over it.
