Lights, drown me.
Overbear me and cover the future.
Yet as I am, a child, scared of the dark,
has no drama with the past.
and yes, I know I’m scared of monsters too,
But if they all have one thing in common,
It’s that they don’t exist.

What do you mean "has no drama with the past" who is it you're speaking about?

#

And can you explain the title please?

So, in this poem, we can see the theme of time- the past and future- so I’m talking about the tenses here. The word tense also means nervousness, so it serves two purpose. The “2” represents “to” and it was written in that way to represent a poem being written by a child. The last part being “drecent3ly” stands for the recently- so in all it stands for tense to the recently- as right now (recent) contradicts both the past and future and also it’s about even though monsters don’t exist, we are still tense and scared as time moves on.
