Something there
Enclosing me
Stifling my breath
Suffocating
Choking
I’m drowning to death
The leaves of trees
In the dark of night
Spread out
To hold me
To strangle
To kill the light
Screaming
Trying to shout
Trapped inside
Let me out
I’m paranoid
I hear voices
Talking about me
Talking about
Hurting me
Killing me
Please stop
This torture
This hell
Bring me back
To yesterday
Before I fell
Screaming
Trying to shout
Trapped inside
Let me out
Take the words
From my burning mouth
Change my life
Kill my doubt
Kill me
Let me out

Nightmares are sometimes
daymares in motion.
We get tired, we want "out"
we want more,
we want less of more,
we want.

We desire, retire
admire, abstain,
refrain...and then wham
it hits us.

We're human.

Nightmares can also be caused by some particularly debilitating toxins, and I don't mean recreational, but the sort that make re-entering a waking state more difficult than is natural...

This is a good read, and I look forward to reading more poetry from you at this site.
