The Dark

By Manvi S

As the darkness falls over me,
I feel so alone.
The others ran away,
and left me all on my own.
As I pray for some light,
I fiddle with my fingers.
The dark, like buzzing bees,
pinching me with their stingers.
The clouds of fear start to part,
The joyful sun, warming my heart.
