*This is actual, as true as it gets! My constant nightmare*


Into the darkness of a hallway
I'm running from an insane fellow
Faster, I try to run
but my legs turn to jello

It's a horror movie
Leading to the murder scene
The killer is michael myers
Creepy villain from Halloween

His knife and my flesh
Are an arms length of meeting
And all I hear next
Is my scared heart beating

Lightening pierces the night
With each precise flash
Surgically removing my fright
With his knife's every slash

I hear his breath
As I gasp for my own
So close to death
Too far from home...

Ooooh, how awful....your dream I mean. I hate the ones where you are running and never seem to get anywhere. Well done. Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.

Rose! This is exactly why I don't watch that stuff! I don't know that I've ever dreamed a movie before, but there was one memorable dream that involved Mick Jagger, Steven Tyler and !David Lee Roth!?!...that last guy made it a nightmare!

Thanks for writing...and um, try a bit of chamomile tea before bed...Hugs you!

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Joanna, this is so very terrifying, sweet friend, I know just how you feel; I used to have these kind of nightmares every night when I was little and I feared going to sleep because I thought I would be killed while I was dreaming! (sigh) My heart goes out to you, sweet friend, forget that stupid movie Jason X and always have the sweetest dreams, for I love you so much and I always dream of you! (kiss on lips) I love you my Shakira! (wink wink)



Love,
Noah Eaton
