Dreams Of Falling

I have nightmares of falling great heights.

I have dreams of falling
Skin tight
And terrified
Through depths of darkness and hell alike
Flailing, grasping
For something to hold
To keep back the night
Lungs full to bursting
Heart racing
Mind burning
Screams born to die
On woken lips
Bolt upright in bed
Amid thrashing limbs

Author's Note

There is not a night that I do not remember my dreams and many of them are not what I would call fun.
