Cassandra Lee Under the BedUnder the bed
A monster lingers
As I quiver under my covers
Under the bed
Long black hair creeps out
When I turn off the lights
Under the bed
I hear rattles and whispers,
And a figure is in the corner
Under the bed
There’s darkness and doom,
And the low croaking of death
Under the bed
I dare not look,
As the TV turns to static
Under the bed
The floor starts to creak
While feet thump up the stairs
Under the bed
the monsters disperse
As the sun comes rolling in
Under the bed
I finally check
And I’m never heard from again
