I Scream Helplessly into the Night
Darkness comes, the world freezes
in time,
through the window the
moonlight shines.
Not uttering a word nor daring to breath,
from the blackness it continues to seethe.
Standing there stalking, preying
on me,
the deadliest predator that I
cannot see
the thing I fear, the object of my fright
and I scream helplessly into the night.

Is it moving, where is
it now?
I want to run but suddenly don't
know how.
Something hits my window, makes me jump
to my right something goes thump.
But it doesn't move, it stays out
of sight
as I scream helplessly into the night.
