sleep.
Seeping and crawling came my fear.
I couldn’t see it very clear.
Tension mounting as it came near,
Transforming it into a tear.
Anxiously waiting, couldn’t hear,
My eyes were staring with a leer.
Then I felt it, it seemed so clear.
Arriving quickly, it was here.
Shimmering, I felt it unfold.
Negative thoughts had taken hold.
Anguish entered into the fold.
I’ll get the light; I must be bold.
What has given me such a scare?
Just another stupid nightmare.
