Fear

Sound asleep in this creaky old bed
Where I lay.
Where I rest my head.
I hear the voices crying out
Are they within or with out?
I wake in fear
With thoughts, with tears
I lay in fear for I don't want to know.

I'm scared to know just where to go.
Do what they say?
Or turn and run away.
I'm frightened to know what they want.
But still in doubt I listen.
