Nightmares

a deafening scream tore out my heart that thundering sound it haunts my sleep the clothes i wore stuck hard with the sweat All i can feel is my hearts beat the cold shot through me like lightning gasping for air i dare not speak my eyes grow oh so heavy My aching head my legs feel weak running ducking dodging so fast that i can barely see my body falls i feel the ground the damp and dark, it frightens me The fear is real Im almost gone i can hear footsteps who could it be They've found me hiding, what should i do I sit straight up I've been fast asleep Copyright (c) James Mahauariki 2009
