Night terrors

One for me:

Dripping dreams of life away,
Dreaming drips night and day,
Can you hear the waters lap?
How many dreams left in the tap.

And one for the Monster:

Bump!
Things that go bump in the night,
Should not really give one a fright.
It's the hole in each ear
That lets in the fear,
That, and the absence of light!
