My Nightmare

My Nightmare

I’m lost in some dark abyss
I struggle but to no avail
No one here to save me
Have I died and gone to hell

It’s like I’m in some big box
I reach but no ones there
I struggle on I struggle on
I’m gone and no one cares

I begin to panic
I cannot get free
Why in the hell am I here
This darkness holds on to me

Then suddenly I awaken
I’m sweating, and aching, and scared.
I am free from that dark prison
I now am free of my fear
