The swarm

And so another night begins
I hear them coming on dark wings
Every time I close my eyes
The swarm comes, death is nigh

They make the deepest dark of night
A far more black and evil plight
With vampiric teeth and sharp claw
And screeches like a rusty saw

They are the devil’s evil brood
Creatures of a deadly mood
You cannot flee from such beast
The swarm has come, for you it’s feast

You'll scream as they tear and bite
A howl that will send all a flight
But no mortal can out run
Creatures that only fear the sun

So sit and shudder in your fear
It will not help, the swarm is here.
