My Living Nightmare

 
 Un like you, I can't run from my nightmares.
They follow me where ever i go, when your not there.
 For in your presence my demons flee.

You walk out of the room and they are getting closer.
 Please, don't leave me with them.
What if they consume me before you return?

 I need your wings, your bullet-proof protection.
I need your arms around me. I need your heartbeat,
 to drown out there whispering. the walls are closing in on me.

I'm begining to panic,..."What do you want from me?!!"
 "Leave me alone!!" I feel them all around me,
the beasts that have come for my soul.

 there so close now that I can smell the oder of
decomposing flesh, and feel the fire on my skin
 I can hear the distant screams of death in my ears.

I close my eyes, finally you come back and i'm frantic.
 I try to tell you whats wrong. "Demonds?" you ask,
with a face that tells me you don't believe me.

 So I sit here alone with my demons in this padded cell
around me. with claw shaped scars on my legs.
 I'm scared. Tonight they collect me.
