Nightmares

Close your eyes and drift away Repressed memories come out to play. Visions of her sitting there Rocking back and forth shedding tears of pain With rage and anger just fighting to come out Nothing can stop her now The knife she holds as blood pours down Is just the start to the devils game of hell. Pills work to numb the soul Razor blades help to release the hurt A broken hand caps it off. Showing her it is over for now, until the next game is dealt. When dreams run wild and free these are the visions that she sees. Close your eyes and drift away See things in a different way Protecting her heart and holding her hand Reminding her it’s only a nightmare. When the morning sun arises she will see That god has given her a new destiny
