Night Visitor By Ashley

Alone in the dark, in my bed I lay. My house may be locked but he finds a way.

The windows are shut and I can’t hear a sound, then a window opens, I know he’s around.

He enters my room and sits near my bed, when I see him come not a word is said.

He knows all my secrets, from him I can’t hide, there’s no where to run so I let him inside.

Most wouldn’t want me to be with this dark stranger, they would say he is evil and full of danger.

But I realized that being with him isn’t a sin, so I opened up to him and he came in.

He stares into my face and looks into my eyes, it is then clear to me that he won’t tell me lies.

I feel so safe when I hear him say “I’ve come to take your pain away.”

I let him touch my face and open my heart, I hope we’ll be like this always, never apart.

He moves closer and pulls me near, why is it that I don’t feel fear?

I know it is time and he slips under the covers, I know I love him deeply and we become lovers.
