[bodytext] => I once had a dream I was on a boat We were on the ocean for days afloat The clouds slowly began to close in I knew a storm would soon begin The wind got stronger, the waves grew higher The cap’t said “Do not fret”, but I knew he was a liar The ocean wishes to swallow us whole Forever we would be lost, body and soul The boat rocked as each wave hit it I soon tasted blood as my tongue I bit All power went out, darkness is all around This is when I first hear the sound It is a scratching sound but unlike a rat It is a deep sound, like something big and fat It is faint at first, barely heard above the wind Even so, shivers down my spine it does send I hold my breath, straining to hear more The sound has stopped, but I don’t know what for This is when I knew the end was near I never knew I could feel such fear Afraid to move, afraid to breath, I close my eyes I wish it was over, I don’t want this surprise Out of nowhere, no sound was heard The unthinkable finally occurred I was saved from my horrible fate When my cat landed on me with all her weight Aroused from my nightmare, I let out a moan I realize even in sleep, I’m not alone [comments] => 3 [counter] => 217 [topic] => 7 [informant] => mercedes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => HumorPoetry )
