Did I get inspired. | Made 3 new poems
That dream

In that dream I woke up
It was night and all was dark
I knew that a game was in play
And I needed to be quiet
And she clawed me with dagger-like talons
But I just laid quiet

In that dream I woke up
It was night and all was dark
I knew I had had a nightmare
Then the couch grew teeth and bit me
And it bit me with needle-like teeth
But I just laid quiet

After that dream I woke up
It was night and all was dark
I knew my sanity was fleeing
And I needed to run outside
And I begged for the sun to come up
But the sun just laid quiet
***

My nightmare

My nightmares rage inside
they're tearing the house apart
I ran outside, beneath the roof of stars

I'm so cold

I hear the specters scream at eachother
My sanity hanging by a sindle thread
Thread over the vastness of space
Over the sleeping world
Thin thread of love and courage

My reason to live

Dripping water
like so many poisonous droplets
Created by my fear
My insanity not eased by the sun
It hides just below the horizon,
fearing my dreams

I feel so alone
***

My resolve

This is my war
I don't need mercenaries
Only those I trust

Song of Summer playing in my ears
A wicked hook mocking me

The darkness slowly flees,
as my resolve grows stronger
But as soon as I show signs of weakness
the jackals are tearing me to bits

I want to survive with the shard
--------------

Had the first nightmare since I was 3. Nuff said.

I love all the imagery in those, and your beautiful way of expressing/describing things

Thx. I thought I was going to go nuts when the feel of horror just didn't go away. Then the sun, thankfully, rose. Damn that was a good nightmare... Smile
