The Boogeyman

by Gypsy Blue Rose


Dedicated to Dean Kuch, may he rest in peace

At the break of dusk, 

I hear the demon below and behind.

It teases and plays with my head

to drive me insane.

 
frightful fiend from hell

that never stops to rest.

 

It lurks in the halls all night,

i'll torment me till I die.

 

My dad and sister think I lie, 

I feel like I’m going mad.

 

Who is going to believe a kid? 

Grown-ups look at me aghast.

 

I know soon it'll drag me to hell

where I'll stay.
