Monster Under the Bed

There's a monster under my bed Daddy

He's scary as can be.

But I know that you can save me Daddy

With a few soft spoken words.

Because that monster under my bed Daddy

His face is just like yours.

Oh please tell me it's not true Daddy

Those words he whispers to me.

Please Daddy, Please Daddy

Let me not be a failure in everything I do.

Just tell me the truth Daddy,

Am I a disappointment to you?

Author's Note: I guess I'm trying to say that we never can escape those monsters. We may grow older and realize there isn't something living in the closet, but we still have things we fear.
