Natural night light

Aubrey

Someone left the night light on
It’s bright outside, but there’s no sun

On the wall in my bedroom 
  I see ominous shadows loom  

I don’t find them scary or creepy
I’ve had a hard day, and I’m sleepy

Maybe he’s just saying hello
I’ll say goodnight, and then he’ll go

Then again, he’s not so bad
The more I look, it makes me glad

That, someone, left a night light on
I’ll close my eyes until it’s morn
