Scream Dream
Last night
My nightmare
Was about something true
Nothing left
To misconstrue
Reality
Within a dream
Is enough
To make me scream....

relentless
some graves aren't deep enough
to bury what haunts you
some terrors never die
just wait for you to close your eyes

Nighttime
The time of night!
When souls are bright.
There goes the sun in flight!
The dark blankets all and many affright!

same streets
mid victorian london saw dickens
at night pacing the streets, the same streets
I used to walk in the dark
and lonely moments I couldn’t sleep

One's Vampiric Nightmare
Karen
found herself
inside
a crypt stripped naked
and probed by a beast
that sucks blood before
she woke
up screaming
so loud.

a simple puppet
look, I live on a hill
sometimes I can walk up it
but sometimes I can’t
help falling down
sometimes I can walk up it
but sometimes I can’t
help falling down

She
She spent her days
wishing for water
in a world of flames
Shifting shadows,
venomous voices
all around her
in wake and sleep
She couldn't
make music
of the noise
the fire made
She was
the devil's cigarette

My Mind Is A Prison
I cannot stop
Waking up in cold sweats
Remnants of my terrors
Fading so quickly
I can hardly grasp what they were
Waking up in cold sweats
Remnants of my terrors
Fading so quickly
I can hardly grasp what they were

shadow tangled vines
shadow
tangled vines
wrap themselves
around
my sleep,
delicate
breathing
coming from
my chest,
my dreams
blinking
within each
direction
and
my hands
tied,
whether this
is natural
or unnatural
occurrence,
each thought
works its
way to
the surface,
awakening
i realized
i felt
this way
every time
i thought
of you
walking away.
