Over Active Imagination

To awake to sleep
In the quiteness of my room
I feel like I can never fall asleep
I reach for my light
To switch it off
And then darkness
It feels to creep up and cover me up
Like somethings there
I quick turn the light back on
My over active mind
Sees what I wouldnt like

So I lay there
Motionless
Think if I move one bit
The dark creature of the night will get me
All these images of this thing races through my mind
But as I imagine the creature
I am now sound asleep
Nothing can bother me now

Silly how this all turns out
Still the next night waits
Sitting there in the back of my mind
Waiting to pop back out
To awaken my over active imagination
