Whispers Peaches & Claire

Whispers Peaches & Claire

saw a monster that hung in the air

It arrived in the latest of nights

under covers they hovered in fright

It loomed o’er the bed high above them

with red eyes and black wings flapping wild

And fixed its dark gaze right upon them

deciding which one was its child

But as the sun’s rays broached the window

and shadows no longer appeared

The demon became but a memory

— to live deep inside of their fears
