Premium Member I woke up frightened, a girl lost in an abyss of terrifying dreams
I woke up frightened, a girl lost in an abyss of terrifying dreams, Where sweat flows like a rain of stars on the sky of the endless night, I worry, for I used to not know fear when you were by my side, But now I feel the shadows of the world reaching silently for my soul, I wonder...

Premium Member Before I Woke - May 14
A girl,(her long baby blue dress,)was sat a pace behind me(golden earrings gleaming); She smiled(her waterfalling hair fell streaming) to me as I turned to her(eyes!)and at (her freckles sparkled)a glancing cue to chat (in her rosy lips)went teasing,—we scheming— (a grinning wink,)—one kiss, then two or(dreaming), who was the mouse? moreso, who was the cat? At dinner,(candles lit her flickered face,) a...

Premium Member This morning, when I woke up, my heart was silent
This morning, when I woke up, my heart was silent, a lost echo in a room without a window, my soul, a nocturnal butterfly, had escaped through the half-open window, leaving me a body without an orchestra, without song, without dream, searching for myself through labyrinths of disoriented and lonely senses. I walked like a shadow through the city's rain, seeking...

Premium Member It Was Raining When I Woke Up
It was raining when I woke up early this morning and it’s expected to rain all day. The temperature outside is in the low fifties; cold and gloomy and perfectly in line with how I’m feeling. Sadness, disappointment and a growing sense of imperfection is gnawing inside reminding me that no matter how...

The dream that woke
Every light color I see, Feels like I'm running on E, I want to turn it black, Complete what it must lack, A blend of every single ray, Do you see my portray, It stuffs you into a void, Making you paranoid, Reaching for some ledge, Far from any edge, A falling dream, Limitless seam, Unable to ever stop, Descent from the top, Variable speeds range, Directions don't change, Lidless eyes...
