Why is the dark so scary? It doesn’t bark nor bite. It is a harmless thing, but it still gives you a fright? Why do you fear the dark? It shale not harm you in any way. So cast aside you fear of the dark and relax awhile and stay. Stays in its glories glow, do not run do not go. The dark isn’t so scary believe me it’s not. You do not agree, you shall not. That okay, that’s just fine. Leave me alone in this time. I shall stay and enjoy its wonderful glow but you do not have to… you can go.
