Sweet Nightmares

Oh another nightmare.
Sweet, sweet despair.
Cold; dark room.
No one is close.
But the scream, of a child being eaten by a lion.
it hurts; burns the heart.
scarred on the brain.
But its only a dream.
Night tells my brain when time.
Screams are loud
burns the ears.
only love can get me out.
someone to wipe it away.
Wipe the darkness.
the loneleness.
help me.
Sweet Nightmares.
