Dread

I awoke with a feeling
I wasn't alone in there
from across the room
I could feel the icy stare
a black amorphous cloud
hovered in the air
I could feel the anger
as it moved around my bed

as black as black
could possibly be
a cold wind over came
the summer nights heat
I asked it what it wanted
and whom it had been
it just stared right through me
bitter ,cold and clean

"You will never get her back"
"she now belongs to me"
said the dark black cloud
looking right at me
as I comprehended
what it said to me
it waited for my eyes to grow
then it lunged at me

It pushed me in the bed so far
it cut off all my breath
It seemed to me for hours
I was paralyzed by dread
then it moved off me
and vanished in the night
I will never ever forget
waking up that night
