Nightmares
From the depths of my imagination,
comes a dream that seems so real ,
Awakened by the breath of danger,
with a presence that I can feel.
Hidden from reality deep within my mind,
shaken up and kept from all my sleep.
I fear sleeping for it will come again,
terrified under covers lying here in a heap.
Childhood demons watching my every move,
they're staying hidden deep within my head.
I'm to afraid to move for fear they may attack,
I hide there in my room hidden in my bed.
The door is to far away for me to make a run,
Demons waiting for a move so they can grab my head.
But if I could only grab my laser off of my night stand,
I could escape if I'm careful,once I shoot them dead.
Those demons of the night that stalk me in my sleep,
there were many nights I just laid there and weep.
But as I grew up my thoughts turned to other things
now all I dream of are things I long to keep.
