Nyctophobia - Afraid Of The Dark Poem by Noel Horlanda

It’s normal for humans to fear darkness
we have our own reasons why,
either adult’s or child’s meekness,
I don’t care but doctor try
to speak out the phobic behavior

Adult have fears, more on children too
and when the lights are switched off,
night fear is common to the two,
once candle light is doff,
inky dusk absolutely embraces phobia

A child cries alone in the dark
to let mum dad be in him,
nocturnal wolves began to bark,
the lad’s room started to dim
stealthy shadows moving, creeping behind walls

Undefined imaginations conceived in mind
if this fear will go on in time,
soon fear, gloom and child combined
would lead scary nights worth in dime.
by the thoughts of darkness alone, nyctophobia is here

So no child be left alone to watch
scary shows, movies but story nice
in gloomy environment to match
well lit surroundings denies
nyctophobia’s coming, that’s the remedy
