The Nightmare

by "Tika1980"

Lying here cold my eyes wide
cold numb and so sweaty
my body stiff and yet it shakes
an unshed tear stings my eyes

the walls around me are closing in
the darkness soon surrounds me
theres frightening sounds that the silence makes
and horrible things I dont see

I never again will shut my eyes
be vulnerable to the deamon of the night
To hear his fierce gutteral cries
and hurt from his pleasured flight

In twilight he acts so peaceful
pleadingly he whispers to come in
I close my eyes and finally concede
and then another nightmare begins.
