Slumber...
Slumber... (suggestion from a fluffy friend =^-^=)
Seeing a sight not quite right
I gaze at at the sun glowing above, in the still of night
I appear to be in a sinking spot, every step I take shakes the very ground
No voice to use, I stagger about as I'm feeling followed, whispers being heard all around
As the sun & moon stare at one another, their light begins to fade
Snarls are heard behind me... something foul is being made
From every thought, it takes form, distorted & always out of sight
It only hungers for doubt, itching for my turn around, waiting for my final fight
As this continues, I make my way up the hill, though the distance seems ever expanding
My eyes losing focus, my arms giving way, the struggle is too demanding...
Slipping fingers burn as my neck feels a sickly light touch
The breath from the beast, awaiting its feast, heated anger emanating loudly from it so very much
Frozen in place, it stops in its chase, as dread fills my being
It seems to be growing, ever knowing, my struggle has become to great
My body now numb, I lay quietly, awaiting my nightmarish fate
As eyes close, my mind goes, toward a falling sensation
Breathing heavy, I sit up immediately, sweat falling from me, still lost in mental hesitation
For a moment, in bed, I shakily hold my head
Trying to picture what was just a moment away from ending my imagined breath, mentally speaking, I should of been dead
The memory now jumbled, in pieces it begins to fade
For what it was, what it wanted...its point, has been made...
Such feeling felt from what I could only hear, yet enough to shake me to the bone with fear
Uneasy I lay back, back into a chance at a better place, with closed eyes, to see
Though, a part of me will always know, it may come again, forever hunting, trying to find & end me...
"The monsters from thought need no true shape or form"
"They rely only on fears, & memories, with emotions & imagination, since the days we're born"
Remember, they are only as strong as we think they can be...
Such life is given, only if doubt is found within you & me...
