Nightmares

 

Terror flows

Through

My head

And my

Heart

With such speed

I should be

Impressed.

It seemed so real

Since it happened

Before.

I’ve seen it.

I’ve felt it.

That’s why it’s

So

Dangerous.

Wake up

And feel the

Burn the monsters

Left behind.

But that is

The awful

Part.

The part when I wake

Up and realize

It

Isn’t

A

Monster.

It’s real.

They’re real

People

I have met

Before.

They don’t chase me

They force me

To relive

The one pain

I’ve tried

So

Hard

To

Suppress.

Waking up from

This should feel

Like

Relief

But I know it happened

I know

It was

There.

No relief

Comes with

That

Knowledge.

Just pure terror

And fear

Not hate.

It couldn’t have

Happened.

It did.

It did.

My God

It did.
