Everytime I turn all the lights off I feel alone. I feel like the darkness is slowly consuming me. I feel trapped and terrified.Then I turn the light back on and everything is okay I feel like someone is watching over me. I don’t feel so small and trapped. I feel normal. I feel safe. Then the light is back off. I no longer feel any sense of protection and fear that something is going to come out and grab me. I run and turn on a lamp. Not as much light as before but now I feel comfortable enough to lie down and close my eyes. I do just that. But then my eyes are opened once more and the feeling of terror is back. It's not enough light. What if the lamp caught fire? So I get up and turn the lamp off. I run to the door and open it. No light is on in the hall nor the bathroom. The hall light would attract attention from my family members so I quickly run across the dark and scary hall constantly thinking about what could be lurking at the end of it. Once I reach the bathroom I turn the light on inside of it and take a minute to enjoy the light of it. I then face the not so great terrors of the dark hallway. It's not as dark as before, but I still question what is waiting in the corners that no light has been shed upon. I run back across the hallway and into my room and I leave the door wide open I run into my bed and lie down. This time my attempts to sleep are successful and I feel like those I love are watching over me once more.
