alone in the dark

i was alone in the dark and afraid,

no one to talk to or to liston ,

in a second it was there,

this is how my bad dreams begun,

at five years old you no nothing ,

and the beast that stands before me does,

my life changed in a flash,

as it looked the windows and doors ,

shaking and nearly crying ,

it smiled at me and closed the last shutter,

the eyes of evil are  looking  apon  me ,

as i scream for my mother ,

but hands of dirt cover my mouth ,

 i can bearly breath  or see ,

it tell´s me to be still ,

do what i tell you and you can go free ,

in that room i grew up fast,

nothing ever again was the same 

and for the next ten years  every day ,

it haponed again and again  and again 

to stay silent because of fear,

 it was the only way to hide ,

all the pain that i had to take ,

a child´s life of lies,

today i am all grown up,

it´s a better world for me to day ,

but  i  alway´ssee that room ,

and the beast that through my childhood away ,

it took me thirty years to speek,

and not a day goes by ,

when i ask my self ,

everyday sweet jesus WHY,

when it comes to children

keep a loveing hold to there arm,

keep them safe in your home 

and keep them safe from harm 

dont let them talk to strangers ,

please dont let aneything acour,

remember you can allways choose your friends,

but you can never, ever  choose your nabour´´s

this is my story ,
