PEOPLE IN THE DARK

-->
"A little child wants play and to achieve things... But he does not like the people in the world around him. He feels that they tease him and stare at him that he does not like."

PEOPLE IN THE DARK

I am a Little Child
I Love to Play and Dance
And to make Good Friends
But, I Fear the Dark!

I am a Little Child
I wish I could Fly like a Bird
And Run Fast like a Deer
But, I Fear the Dark!

I am a Little Child
I love to see the Moon, the Stars
And the Firefly at Night
But, I Fear the Dark

I am a Little Child
But, I Fear the Dark –
There are People in the Dark,
Calling Me Names!

I am a Little Child
But, I Fear the Dark –
There are People in the Dark
With Menacing Stares!

I am a Little Child
But, I Fear the Dark –
There are People in the Dark
Blackening All That Light!

I am a Little Child
I don’t like those Shadows in the Dark
Why the Sun ever sets n Brings ‘em back?
How I wish there were a Torch!
