• Tick-Tock
    Goes the clock
    On the wall behind me

    The cold wet walls
    And eerie halls
    Have not a comfort for me.

    The stale wet air
    And my blanket with a tear
    Don’t have a care about me.

    The un-lit room
    And sky-less moon
    Surrounds me all around in darkness

    My clever mind
    And trick filled eyes
    Have teamed up just to trick me

    My head is spinning
    With ghostly steps
    I think something coming to get me

    Sweaty palms
    And frantic thoughts
    Have already overwhelmed me.

    A chuckling laugh
    A pain in my leg

    Oh!
    What’s that?
    It’s got me
