Open your eyes to face your fears.
let your heart sill, don't despair

Deep inside, you know you can't hide
danger hangs around, side by side.

You want to call for help, but... who?
No one is coming to rescue you.

You'll have to face, you'll have to fight,
deal with the shadows of the night,

be the winner of the game
- while mysterious voices utter your name.

Not a witch, a werewolf, a ghost...
This is exactly what you fear the most,

much scarier than all the rest.
You feel your heart heavy in your chest.

Enveloped in dread, you feel like blind,
someone is playing with your mind.

Then you know, you don't have a clue,
the monster is inside you.

Any possible help or light is gone,
you are here, and you are alone.

No matter how much you hide, how much you run...
The nightmare has just begun.

This is a brilliant (and chilling) poem. I love the short, powerful lines and the rhymes.

It reminds me of my own work [link] except that yours is a LOT better.
