My Darkest Dream
I go to bed an close my eyes;
That is when my imagination flies.
I dream of family and friends,
Then I see their ends.
Darkness drowned the light,
And I lost the will to fight.
Darkness walked,
And Fear talked.
In Darkness, I did drown
While Fear held me down.
In Darkness, I had a path to choose,
But what would I gain? What would I lose?
Every feeling of Hope
Was taken and bound with black rope.
Kindness and love were no longer there,
And could not be found anywhere.
I tried to open my eyes, but could not see,
Because Darkness had a hold of me.
I tried to scream and scream,
Trying to wake from this evil dream.
I prayed and prayed. I prayed with all my heart,
And finally the Darkness began to part.
My soul, with joy, does scream,
Because I have waken from my darkest dream.
