Nightmares
In dreams I go hurtling through the night
Snatching at jumbled images of my past
Running but always unable to catch up
Then falling down, down..awake at last
My pillow drenched with perspiration
With relief I breath a thankful sigh
But there will be no more sleep tonight
For the devil might catch me if I try
