Dreams......Maybe? :)

Insanity of the sane mind
A clarity of that which is bane to light
A broken mirror in the night where ravens take flight
A cloaked shadow over the moon's nighted sight
A shade within a shadow cowered as we plead
Who art thou which comes within our presence to feed
We twist and turn to catch the screams which breeds in surprise
We scatter in plight each with hopes of freedom in sunrise
Each scream rises to zenith then silence.

All that is left is my own, 
My plight and fear of this very night
I feel its eyes as it bears down on me with relished delight
Feeding my fright with it's blighted light
All I feel is it eyes, 
Watching me, its plaything
I have no where left, no light, no friends, no Family
I know it now there is no Light
I wait to see,
To take this killer to stop its glee from my fright
I wait and see
And wait
I hear a sound behind me and feel hands upon me
Then sit up in bed, wet and white with fright
Fingering my neck where it held me I see red water
And curse at my stupid cats......
