Creature of night

Pour me a stiff drink
And I’ll tell you the tale
Of the creature of night
Still making me pale.

It was half a human
Half beast of wild
Chased me through nightmares
That cursed child.

My legs frozen
The ground holding tight
I cried and moaned
No sound, no fight.

When I woke up
In my bed
I still felt its paws
Grasping my head.
