Nightmare

November 4, 2011

By PLATINUM, Kapowsin, Washington

More by this author

Darkness surrounds
My feet pound the empty pavement
Fear of the unknown
Breathing down my neck
Clawing at my back
Caught, dragged down

I only catch a glimpse
Of this evil
Searing pain
Tears my apart
Blind, deaf, paralyzed
Screaming, crying, fighting
Now awake, unharmed
Caught up in my blankets
Unnerved by dark thoughts

The author's comments:

I have had to deal with some pretty dark things in my life. Since writing helps hold me together, I decided to turn my fear into a series of poetry. Pain into beauty- yes, it seems better that way.
