night terrors

A Poem by Tessa

help me...

please,

the night terrors...

they have taken over my body...

and im scared.

its 3:30,

the witching hour...

and i can feel them..

coming for me.

so i wil stay awake,

until you talk to me,

and remind me

that you are still here...

and these terrors,

arent real...

they're just...

nightmares...

Author's Note

literally its almost 4 am on monday october 18, 2010... ive been having nightmares for some time now... and it doesnt frighten me to the point where i have to stay awak until about 3 or 3:30 in the morning when i have them... by by then there is no one there to comfort me... so i just write to myself instead... next time i fall asleep ill just waiting til i wake up gasping again... which is y i usually sleep during the day.
