constant nightmare.

I open my eyes.

My lungs feel on fire.

I see the surface and I dart towards it.

When I surface, I'm surrounded by flames. 

The sky is so black.

Absent of stars. 

This constant feeling of my heart smashing, has brought tears to my eyes. 

Something is missing. 

I'm so alone here. 

So afraid. 

The flames close in on me and I am forced under the water. 

Movement comes from the shadows. 

Red shadows..

Darting from the blood is a beast with sharp jaws. 

He watches me drown. 

Watches my pain.

I awaken, alone.. covered in tears. 

Will these nightmares ever end?
