I am Powerless!!

I am Powerless!!

A Poem by Dragon Witch
"

Scariest thing that has ever gone through my mind. Later we found out all the pple on the top floor of that building had the same dream, repeatedly. This was amongst the creepiest thing I have ever heard of or experienced. We moved as soon as we could.

"

Wake up!! Wake up!! my brain screams at me.

In groggy darkness I fly out of bed.

Waiting , listening, what was it?

I know it wasn't my imagination.

 

There it is, that frightening sound.

Breaking wood and voices,

the front door, how many, why?

I'm petrified!!!!

 

Do I run for help and leave the kids here?

Do I stay and fight to my last breathe?

Where is my protector? He isn't here.

This can't happen like this.

 

I see them, they are real!! I can see them.

Shouting, why are they wearing masks?

They aren't in uniform.

My mind is spinning

Trying to find the logic in this.....

But there is none...HELP ME !! SOMEONE, ANYONE.

 

I want to get to my kids,

I must before they do...

They are between me and the kids bedroom,

What to do.....

I go silent, breathe deeply

They haven't seen me.

 

Back up into the bedroom

Maybe I can escape and get back through the door behind them

Get the kids!! Get the kids ! my mind is screaming.

Heart beating so hard I am deaf.

Am I going to die?

 

I get out, yes!!!

Can I do it?

I lose time ........

NOOOOOOO....

We are all together in the lounge,

They have us all......

My heart feels like it will burst, I can't breathe,

Why us? Why now?

I beg and plead let my kids go , please!!!

Hubby and I have lived

Where was he?

Where did my missing time go?

They have guns oh no , oh no...

 

I wake up petrified and sobbing,

Frozen to my bed.

Will they be here?

My kids.....

Wait he's here beside me sleeping

It can't be real...

Let me just see...

 

Tiptoeing through

I made it! Yahoo!

No time to celebrate yet.

I see them....

My babies, sleeping in peace,

Not knowing the horror I just saw transcend.

I sit on the floor to watch them sleep

Sucking in their peace and calmness before the break of a new day.

 

The terror of night that sometimes loses power in the light of day.

Have you ever wondered are they warnings

Or just the toll of a long day?

Sweet dreams to us all ....
