Fast asleep,
safe in bed.
Suddenly evil thoughts
rush into your head.
You try to scream, and get nothing.
Feeling like someone is watching,
even though you're on the second floor.

The faces are so familiar
yet they don't seem to be helping.
Can't they see you're scared?
As you look again, you notice
an unfamiliar face watching.
You try once more to scream,
once again resulting in nothing.

You get into your car and start driving
hoping this is your escape.
You look back and realize
you're being chased!
So you push the gas but instead of going fast
you get stuck in the grass
of a feild that just apeared.

You feel the warmth of tears.
You want so much to wake up.
Closeing your eyes you begin to pray.
The when your eyes open,
there you are
in your bed,completly safe
from the images in your head.
Your heart is beating out of your chest,
as you catch your breath.


*these are some of the images from my very own nightmare last night*

Thank goodness I don't have those kind of nightmares anymore since I have defeated ALL of my demons. These days softer dreams console me as I sleep.
