Nightmares

In the dark of night, when all is still,

The demons come, with claws and teeth to kill.

They chase me down, through endless halls of fear,

And I can't escape, no matter how I steer.


My heart pounds in my chest, my breath is short and quick,

As I run and run, through the shadows thick.

But still they come, with eyes that gleam with hate,

And I know that this time, I won't escape my fate.


I wake up in a sweat, my sheets all soaked with fear,

And I know that once again, my dreams have brought me here.

To this place of pain, where my nightmares reign,

And I can't escape, no matter how I strain.


But still I try, to face the horrors of my mind,

To find the strength to leave my fears behind.

And though it's hard, and though I often fail,

I know that I must keep on, and never let my courage pale.


For in the end, I know that I will find,

The peace and solace that I seek, deep in my mind.

And though the demons come, with claws and teeth to kill,

I know that I will rise again, and face them with my will.
