Nightmare Cured

I wake in a world of darkness
 A child weeps
I search not for the child
 Rather for the reason she weeps
A creature created 
 By darkness and fear
I will face and do battle
 To rid this creature from her dreams
He is the spoiler of sweet dreams
 They come in many forms
 This one Is fierce and strong
I will not leave this world
 Until he is gone
I awake to the light of day
 I have succeeded
For I look at the smile on her sleeping face
 Her dreams once again sweet

My Winter Rose dream sweet always
