nightmaresA Poem by shanenightmarenightmares I felt a snap in my neck as I tried to turn I felt the flames grow higher, I started to burn All I wanted to do was look around All I wanted to see I want to see you burning too As our bodies break down and turn to ashes I feel the light and I see the darkness Spreading from your heart To cover your soul And you were the one who said it was all my fault I see you rise up, changing like smoke I see the wings grow, time moves slow I try to run but I'm still tied to the shell Close to death, close to non existence I scream out loud for my body to die To release the chains So I can fly away from here, Away from her I feel your grip around my neck Burning my soul it feels like talons on flesh You turn me around and open your mouth Laughing at my fear you pull me close Your jaws snap shut I wake up, bathed in sweat It was all a dream I laugh at myself to disguise the scream As I open the window to get some air I hear a sound someone else is here Light explodes before my eyes I fall to the ground... I open my eyes and smell the smoke I hear you speaking of how it’s my fault I feel a snap in my neck as I try to turn I feel the flames grow higher I start to burn The scream releases this time as I open my eyes Awake again I pinch my skin Is this real am I alive, Is this the real world or am I still inside That nightmare that's been going on all night? © 2010 shaneAuthor's Note
