Another Nightmare I Had.....

it's hard to break an already fractured mind 
such pains are in a tight bind 

tightly wrapped in the thin satin of your coat
hearts beat wildly as they swim across the mote 

halos are fallen and wings are trampled upon the dirty ground
stained with filth and crying their angelic sound 

fractured minds never break so easily 
they melt in the heat 

wreaking havoc in cities and towns 
i am a maiden, wearing a flowing and woven gown

covered from hem to hem with stains of blood 
no control over what actions i with hold

from that one night i feel my will breaking 
and my spirit turning dim 

covered in a shroud of shadows that slowly take my breath
it must be, it could be, such a thing means ... death

I know, at first, I dreamt of only  you, 
then it turned to this, 

i hope it is no dream of mine that comes true!
