The sun sets
as the moon rises
and day becomes night,
daydreams become nightmares

The sun is down
The moon is up
Dark clouds fill the night sky
A storm is close

Lightening flashes
Thunder roars
Terrified and alone
A child takes cover

The night sky lit
by the fear of lightening
The moon sets
as the sun rises
