Darkness Poem by Jessica Fellows

Sitting in darkness makes me feel scared
So scared my mind just flares
Making sense doesn’t even come to mind
My life seems like it’s timed
Sitting here next to my friend makes me feel more comforted
Less torn and contorted
More full and respected
Less alone and rejected
Sitting in darkness is more fun when playing games
Not even with the candle flames
This poem was written to be silly and fun
‘Although it may seem quite dumb
Rhyming about this scary room
Makes more of me feel blue
But enough’s enough
Now its bedtime and it’s tough
Asleep I go
And it just blows
Nighty night to you all
To the pillow my head falls
