Monsters In Her Closet And Under Her Bed

She lies in her bed in the dark, dark room and tries to sleep
Although the shadows creep up around her keeping her awake
She begins to tremble lying within her bed
Listening to all the sounds around her and the lights on the walls she becomes truly afraid
She tries to pull her shades to hide inside within the corners of her room.
Shaking at every noise age begins to believe there are monsters in her closet and under her bed hiding behind the doors within the perimeters of her room
She hides her face into her pillows trying to block it all out and free herself from the fear and eary feelings building inside
As she begins to cry becoming more afraid she yells for mommy
With mommy not coming as quick as she’d like she starts beginning to think she may be alone and lets out a horrified thrilling scream
Then in from the hall her door opens slowly from the outside and in the dark of the room stands a tall black figure she jumps under her covers with tears streaming down her face yelling with extreme fear she screams for mommy not realizing mommy was the shadow standing in the doorway
The light goes on and seeing her mom she jumps up in her bed and into her mother’s arm as her tears begin to dry
She tells her mom about the monsters she hears in her closet and beneath the bed
Her mother trying to reassure her sweet child for rest and of her fears she says…my child it is okay dear the shadows are only shadows of the night created by everything around you and how that light shines across it
Then she continues expressing the best as she can telling her child that the noises that she hears are only the angels which God sends to each corner of her room to watch over her and protect her thru the night as she sleeps
That there are no monsters in her closet or under her bed
She asks her mother to stay by her side while she sleeps
Her mother trying to get out of it says hunny you’re okay, just close your eyes and before you know it it’ll be morning with daylight soon to follow becoming another day
Not wanting to be alone in the dark she again asks mommy stay with me
So unwilling to upset her child sits upon her childs bed to help her back to sleep
While exhausted herself she begins to fade
There she dozes falling asleep herself there next to her child
Together the two lay throughout the night happy and content together in each others arms
When morning moves in mom awakes realizing she had fallen asleep the whole night away with her child
Yet putting a smile on her face she puts aside the fact of nothing getting done as she had planned as she had slept the night away to face the fact that it felt good to be able to wrap her arms around her child once more as she has grown older and won’t let mommy do such things as much anymore
Becoming a big girl this child is growing into her own identity
For the first time she once again she had let her mother in
This brought a smile across the mother’s face as she quietly and slowly crawled away from her daughters grasp and out of the bed to start her new day refreshed, renewed and in a really good mood
Letting the child sleep she turned and took one last look at the quiet child as she quietly snuck out her bedroom door as she whispers goodnight honey there are no monsters in your closet or under your bed it’s just God’s angels protecting you so rest soundly my dear, your mommy’s here and near and she loves you very dearly no matter what unconditionally trying to always show it
