Bad Dreams

Each night my fears all come to life inside my terror dreams They chase me and confuse me where no one hears my screams Repeatedly, I run and hide from them without success No matter how I try they always find me nonetheless Scenarios inside my head which I sometimes create Stories which I fear are visions of my unknown fate I try escaping from them but they all know where I live They hunt me without mercy my dreams do not forgive Like pieces of a puzzle that never really fit Or thoughts I have in waking hours I will not admit Monsters, demons every night I fight them in my bed Scenes of death and horror the ones which I most dread At times I know I’m dreaming and force myself to wake I realize my terror dream is really just a fake But then the night time comes again and when I close my eyes I’m lost again inside a world where nothing will surprise
