I Am Death In Dreams

I am death in dreams
haunting screams,
alive for hours
of your reading.
I stepped an inch
across your space,
I danced a twine
around your face,
a disgrace,
a death,
a senseless act
in dreams or
nightmares teasing,
in time of
blue stained skin,
did you win?
Was I sin or sued
or asked to do,
insane with weeks to go?
You should know,
the buzz by now,
the followed how,
the silkened brow.
I fell inside a salted tear
and brushed upon your death,
hot whisper on my breath,
a tickle past your way,
today's the day,
the only way,
the death in dreams,
I came unseen,
I left untied and empty.
Screeching wires,
second liars,
teeth clenched tires.
I was your death,
in dreams escaped,
my mouth was taped,
I ran the trace
of secret space,
I am the hidden face,
the death, the dreams,
the undone seams,
I am the haunting
screams.

INTRIGUING. Incredibly intriguing. This kind of shows the process of ossification... and yet so much more than that. Very well written, and might I add, a small bit haunting.... Great work!

Wow send chills down my spine...have you been in my dreams?
Terrific description of the terror inherent in our nightmares leaving us wrung out and wrought with fear!

Life is not a spectator Sport!
Dance like no one's watching.
Love like it's never going to hurt.

How often we have seen our dreaams die but then we know it is time to dream a new dream,

fell inside a salted tear
and brushed upon your death,
hot whisper on my breath,
a tickle past your way,

Sweet dreams, loved the poem, < !signature-->

I am the hidden face,
the death, the dreams,
the undone seams,
I am the haunting
screams.

Wow! Peace to you my friend!
