Penny's Tales

Narrated Version [YouTube]

I won’t admit it’s there-

The monster day denies,

Demanding my despair.

Won’t peek to meet a stare

Of sockets without eyes,

I won’t admit it’s there-

At night my fears are bare,

The shadows shift with lies-

Demanding my despair.

Beside myself, aware;

The monster marks demise,

I won’t admit it’s there-

My instincts scream ‘beware’

Beneath the blanket – cries-

Demanding my despair.

It’s only a nightmare,

To heed it is unwise;

I won’t admit it’s there-

Demanding my despair.
