she woke up crying
breathing fast
heart racing
little voice gasps
mama mama
the monsters are here
in my room
please stay near
shh, baby don’t cry
it was just a bad dream
no monsters can hurt you
when you are asleep
the monsters come
when you’re awake
beasts without a heart
and a human face
the real monsters
are out there
roaming free
in broad daylight
for all to see
