Night Terror
As i lay on my bed
Sideways,
how I've always slept
A distinct inclement wind swept
then on my bed it crept
It weighs
sank the bed a tad
Malicious gaze, i felt
on my back
Smooth strands of hair
brushed across my neck
and a breath of jasmine scent
gently blown on my ear
i vaguely smelled and heard
convinced,
another shares my bed
My guts shrank and shrank
then came unceasing screams in my head
so agonizing it can shatter souls
wish an end to this torment
cast the die
i snapped a turn
...nothing there
