Nightmares (Free verse)
Goodnight, I fall asleep and all I can do is dream.
My eyes and mind take flight into a thunderstorm.
Clowns, ghosts, demons, monsters of all kinds.
I wish my dreams would fly through sunshine.
Every breath seems harder than the last,
I'm gasping for air but air doesn't exist here.
I'm a mouse in a home full of feline.
A blood filled fish in a pool of sharks.
Only feeling I can have here is afraid.
My other emotions and insides chased away.
When will I wake up and see my patterned room?
When will my eyes open to air and comfort?
Goodnight Demons, Good morning Mother.
