I try to settle into slumber
but alas I cannot sleep
for I await a visitor
one that torments me every night
one that terrifies my soul
and tries to rip out my heart
as it beats faster & faster
even in the anticipation of my visitor
entering my room like a slick mass of molten lava
ready to encase me in it's intense suffocating ways
I am so frightened I cannot breathe
and my body stiffens and I cannot speak
in the dark I am weak, I am alone
and my night visitor knows this

Love is the life of the soul...
It is the harmony of the universe

A true nightmare, dear Tracie Maree! You have conveyed fear so very strongly here that my heartbeat too accelerated.

Keep a light on! And know that your Guardian Angel sits right there next to you if you call out to him.

Love,
Margherita
