Late at night.

When all is quiet.

When it is very dark.

He is there, watching.

You can feel his stare.

Black empty holes where eyes once were.

The feeling of unease begins to stir.

Did you hear laughter in your ear?

Flash of jagged teeth in the darkness near.

He is everything you fear.

You creep through the darkness not sure what you will find.

Raspy breath touches your neck from behind.

Your heart races in your chest.

He is always watching.

You feel his stare.

Always there when darkness falls.

This is when the boogeyman comes to call.

close your eyes but never go to sleep.

For in your dreams he is sure to seep.

He feeds off your nightmares and terrors.

Always watching, always there.

You feel his stare.

Close your eyes tight.

Try not to scream in fright.

The boogeyman's here in the dark of night.
