nightmare

Light

Fills my head

My sight

My feet were lead

I thought I heard my name

Whispered in the morning

Walking in a frame

I awoke without warning

The thought of being caught,

Alone and scared

I was distraught

Like a cat, teeth bared

But then, I thought I heard my name

Screamed into the night

Blowing out a flame

Erasing deadly spite

When you hear your name called out in the morning only to find yourself alone. Creepy, the thing about nightmares, they're usually only scary for the self because who knows you better than your subconscious?

Well done, Anna

Thank you Cosmin. Yes, It is quite creepy, that's why I created the poem around that feeling.
