Screaming

Sleep alludes me this night Even though try as I might Plagued by horrible nightmares Meant to disturb and scare Why do they torture me so? When will they will finally let me go? Give me peace and rest Loosen up my poor chest. Hard to think through the pain Beating down like a cold hard rain Trying to destroy from within When did all of this begin Will it ever end? Or will I yet again bend Tot he pressures deep down Making me feel like I will drown Clawing my way out Feeling the urge to shout Try not shout and scream Want my mind finally free Toss the covers in vain. Swipe at the fog and pain Sit up and stare Wishing you were there
