flicked

You told me you loved me
but it felt like flicking a switch
On and Off
something smooth and quick
something you could do unconsciously
now I wonder what switch
you really flicked
the one in my room
or the one in my heart
now I'm afraid of sleeping with
the lights off
because I might be the
monster under my bed.
