Goblins And Trolls

Goblins of memory, creeping through the door-

Trolls of anxiety, crouching on the floor…

& every one was here to haunt me in my fear

But now that you’re near, I can make them disappear

Back to their lair ‘til the time when you’re not there

It all spirals wrong when you lie awake ‘til dawn:

A meaningless existence & a worthless little song

Counting sheep never helped me get to sleep

But sleep comes deep when you’re with me in the sheets

Oh, my dear, make the devils disappear
