At Night
When it is dark I sometimes fear the light
What would occur if it ever lost its might?
In darkness I'd be left without the aid of sight.
When it is day I still fear the night- it comes no matter
How hard I fight.
With sights and sounds that I can't identify
In loneliness I lose my nerve
And feel as helpless as a little girl
Without a shield or make believe sword-
Without jacket against the cold world
