A rest of multiple deaths

A rest of multiple deaths

A Poem by Ama May Cooper
"

Written about a nightmare ive had a few times. With various different deaths involved i only put in a few but it tends to be a different selection every night.

"
First I am drowning gasping for air
Chocking on fading remnants of life
reaching upwards toward a distant light
dragged down to a un survivable depth 

The world shimmers around me 
consciousness and sense of life turn to black
it seems endless like a broken picture
consumed in an empty nothingness

Suddenly im sprawling cold tiles beneath me
Sodden , drenched through to the soul 
An insufferable cold charges through my shivering limbs
spluttering coughing, water drenched iron purged from the system

My hands begin to burn like the floor is acidic to the touch 
Searing agony and blinding pain surging through the nerve endings 
My insides going up in flames, deforming cells in a searing heat 
I cry and scream but my throat is silenced, engulfed

Acrid smoke flows through my system 
Leaving sticky trails down to my vital organs
Oxygen starvation kicks in and colors blur
Darkness consumes once again 

Floating in it this time 
No falling , tumbling unsure of destination
Not a landing in sight 
Streaking through a sky of un-uttered silenced realities

A hospital bed below me 
Injections from head to toe
Sharp cackles from medical staff
Weaving sharpened butcher knives

Hands slip, voices scream
Blood curdling screams predicting a doom i see before me 
A loose grip sends a knife charging toward my skull
Wedges deep , blinded by a warm stream

Time seems to freeze before me
Head exploding , shutting down 
Familiar memories flashing before my retina's
A lack of sensations throughout my limbs 

I scream out load
The words return to my lungs 
The pain suddenly gone 
Bolt upright , sweating sitting in a familiar room.

How do you rest your head upon your pillow knowing that such dreams await you? I have two reoccuring dreams- one with snakes everywhere and one with seemingly endless rooms in my house, ones I have never seen before or forgot they existed. but these dreams are a Disney Flick compared to your bone-chilling, mindbending, tortuous dreams. Well written. i hope you find more peace within your dreams in the nghts that lay ahead....
