The Night Time Woods

I was walking in the woods alone at night       

I saw the cold moon glistening in the dark skies   

But I felt the trees cold stern stares staring at me  

I turned around in fear, but nothing was near  

I looked down the track, but the stares were back

Walking deeper into the woods the sky grew darker from clouds

The wind picks up quickly

Branches swing side to side

Leaves rustling chaotically

I can hear the pitter patter from the rain getting stronger

I hear the overwhelming noises surrounding me

I stand tall and embrace the feelings around me

But I can’t help but fear the animals surrounding me

Birds screeching to find shelter

Wallabies shuffling to hide

But aside from all of that, it’s a blessing in disguise
