Reality Nightmare Intertwined - Pt 1 - Prelude

As the darkness of... this day unfolds,
and rebukes the strangeness within.
My heart sinks low, as this story will show,
how despair, rage and fear can begin.
 
This day starts calm,
alive with bird song,
as the sun shines gloriously bright.
I relax in our home,
with my love by my side,
colored speckles dance from glass sunlight.
 
Mother cooks dinner,
sweet aroma takes flight,
our doggies all gather around...
With a sickness so real,
from an eeriness we feel,
a darkness steals light with cold sound.
 
I step outside, to open my mind,
to the eerie dark sight before me.
Nothing inside, could begin to describe,
reflections frightened eyes had seen.
