The Nightmare

A feeling I never knew That I would draw in from you Would be that I am feeling followed Your darkness reaches deep And I cannot lie and sleep Without fear from the earth of being swallowed And at first believed to feel In your heart love was real A wound you cut to deep has made me feel hollowed I never knew I would get thru The long cold dark nights from you Would be the deepest part of this nightmare that followed Like the look in your eyes When caught by your surprise Looking at a bottle of poison you just swallowed I will never forget the look From my eyes that you took From far behind the dark pit of your soul all cut out and hollowed
