From deafening screams
Tossing and truning
Fighting these dreams
They won't go away
And won't leave me be
They're after me
Haunting me in my sleep
I thrash back and forth
In my big empty bed
Everytime I close my eyes
I seem to see red
In every nightmare
I say my last goodbyes
No one comes to rescue me
Nobody hears my cries
I wake up
In a pool of sweat
I feel as though I'm in debt
Debted to the devil
He must have stole
My soul
Hours pass
As these dreadful images
Play out
My eyelids are like
A movie screen
Agonising horror, flashes
Again and again
Capturing every last scream
When will this be over?
I need desperately
To escape
These horrific dreams
We call

Nightmares

Shattering windows
From deafening screams
Tossing and truning
Fighting these dreams
They won't go away
And won't leave me be
They're after me
Haunting me in my sleep
I thrash back and forth
In my big empty bed
Everytime I close my eyes
I seem to see red
In every nightmare
I say my last goodbyes
No one comes to rescue me
Nobody hears my cries
I wake up
In a pool of sweat
I feel as though I'm in debt
Debted to the devil
He must have stole
My soul
Hours pass
As these dreadful images
Play out
My eyelids are like
A movie screen
Agonising horror, flashes
Again and again
Capturing every last scream
When will this be over?
I need desperately
To escape
These horrific dreams
We call
Nightmares.

I'd be willing to bet everyone could relate to this. I know I can.

( watch your spelling ... and typos, they can detract from an other wise fabulous poem )

Another good write Leslie.
