Five Years Old
When I first found out,
There was a monster under my bed,
There wasn't a doubt,
I was scared half to death.
I tried counting sheep,
And counting to ten.
I was still losing sleep,
When I thought again.
I could be dreaming,
Instead of wasting my time.
Monsters have no meaning,
And in the morning I'll be tired.
So instead of staying up and staying awake,
I'll remember I can sleep because monsters are fake!
