Now the night has come
And the day has gone
The world speaks like a silent gun
All u hear are the rythms from the crickets
As u reminisce your deepest secrets
It dark and its black 
But not to worry...the light shall u not lack.
Be not frightened
Be not alarmed
Sleep like a child
Sleep not be surprised
Squeeze your pillow like its ur very last...
You are not alone
Even in the dark..
You are always the guarded one.
