Sweetest Dreams

The signature click of the clock

spreads a miasma undeniably sweet

Drowns every hope, every plea

Transfigures every minute detail

clogs every crack and crevice

in and out, surrounding me.

As my hands start to clam

eyes close in despair, unknowingly 

setting the mental demons free.

Lungs suffocate within their confines

contract and expand to breath

as the pulse plummets down

shaky breathe stutters past my lips

desperate to taste the words of plea.

A tingling passes down my neck

arches my spine in a blasting pain

tears trickle past my open eyes

trying desperately to break free,

from his toxic serenading tune

twisting and tugging at my sanity.

He slowly brushes those cold digits

tantalizingly down my breast to navel

chuckles darkly in my ear

promising, ' sweetest dreams, my sweet!'

This was quite thrilling read. Sudden departure from your regular style but a welcome one.

[Sindu]

Thank you! Yes! Sudden departures are kind of fun :)

[Mayank]

Twisted and dark, this how my night are... felt like you stole my thoughts :p

[Sindu]

I copyrighted them now ;)
You can borrow the thoughts, though :P

[R Smith]

a dark poem of love this takes us on a fearful ride into sensual despair trying to escape his advances its like you're under attack by some sexual demon, 'those cold digits' did it for me, his attentions are unwanted and the fear is prevalent, nightmare or actual attack Sindu ? Brilliant writing :)

[Sindu]

Let's say a psychotic inccubus :P
At first I pictured it to be an actual attack: scene unfolds as the she gets attacked at a certain time, she knows he will and he slowly materializes... But it can make a great nightmare too.
Not an attack on me though :P.. Thanks Richard for a crazy good review

A dark, mildly disturbing seduction

NOTES: "shaky [breath] stutters past my lips"

[Sindu]

I would say highly disturbing :P thank you!!

[MomzillaNC]

A great Juxtaposition of eeriness with the "Sweet Dreams" title. Vivid description of what the unknown. Well done Sindu :)

[Sindu]

Thanks a lot, moon! Yep, something so good can be so eerie in such a situation.

[Briana O'Connor]

As a fan of the twisted this was quite an entertaining read. I love the great mixture of seduction and thrill. The darkness is overwhelming with each descending line. Such wonderful penmenship here. Thank you for sharing.

[Sindu]

Thank you so much Briana! It's great to know this can have an effect on you :)

[Pryde Foltz]

A lovely mixture of the dark and passionate. Great penning.

[Sindu]

Thank you so much Pryde!

[KWP]

yeah - oh dark indeed - what's going on chickface?

if your aim was to create the scene, paint by numbers and join the dots to create for me a vision of horror then well done you have done this ... I believe you can get rid of the word 'my' in the third last line for more unjutted flow ...

now who is this darkness and how can we expel him from your words ???

you are a natural by the way - don't ever stop writing XX

[Sindu]

Thanks a lot Beth for feeling the horror of my writings ;) :P
Nothing new happened. Just a phase, I guess, which will leave. I don't know him ... Haha.. But will try to figure what he is :)

[KWP]

I know what you mean I wrote a poem out of my norm a while back - I must say I enjoyed every word- have a read

I don't think it matters if it comes and goes for it is all part of your being - more inportant is you learn, grow, accept it then elevate :-))) - love to Ya chick chick xx

[Sindu]

I thought about it but did not construct it yet.

Ya, I came to terms with it and try to move along and around it :)

[KWP]

As my hands start to clam
eyes close in despair, unknowingly
setting the mental demons free.
