Nightmares
These nightmares
They Follow me around
Feeding off my fear and
anguish
Falling in love with my hatred
Repeated everyday
It changes as it finds more
ways than one to torture me
From the people I love
To the memories I try to keep
But these nightmares
They fog these memories I claw
to as
I bang my head for changing
the only beloved thoughts of
my old life
My old friends
My old thoughts
I lay in my bed
Fetal position
Trying to comfort myself
Rocking to the memory of my
mother's voice
Why can't I just live back to
when everything was care free
When I was happy?
When life isn't revolved around
one prayer that you wish that
would come true
That would change everything
for me forever
Is god listening?
Can he hear my prayers of
sadness floating like a storm
cloud to the heavens?
I cry myself to sleep
Dreaming of the past of my
faithful memories
But I still wake up
And the nightmares repeat
again.
