The Darkness
by Sabrina Wagner, age 12, US
In the darkness, I wonder what is behind every door.
What made that creak?
I often wonder why I fear the dark,
But still no answer comes.
I think my heart is turning black,
Because of something that bothers me now.
I had some kind friends and I thought I loved them so.
But because of darkness we were drawn apart forever, I know.
