Asleep - Desultory

Asleep again

Darkness is ruling

Within my mind

I feel I’m flying slowly

A dream so real

Alive and frightening

A grotesque sight

My senses shiver deep inside

These nightly scenes

Now twisting my eyes

I see it clear

Painted up before me

Forgotten place

Buried beneath sea

Mountain high

The lord of evil I behold

In silence I dream

Of things yet unseen

Through aeons I see

With closed eyes, in dreams

Deep in me, cries

Terrified

Lame inside, dead

Cannot fight

Awake at last

I’m cold and shaking

So terrified

I stare at my own hands

I have created

Deep in my sleep

A sick reflection

Of the horrid things I’ve seen
