THEY ARE IN THE NIGHT


Everyone has gone away
They all are hiding
Look in the dark corners
Peek on the roofs

You will find them there
All hiding in the night
Crouching down little eyes
Peering back at you

They watch for the moon
They creep all about
Watching, watching every move
You hear the silence

That is them walking 'round
Never will you see them
They are always hiding
When the sun rises

Poof they vanish like the wind
Only to return
Again the very next night
They will not go away, they are hiding in the night
