Nightmares

Your smile leaves an impression on my eyelids
As I close them for the night of horrid dreams
Of monsters and demons that chase me away
And you are placed delicately at the blackened alter
So please tell me you love me as I'm drowning
The sorrow is too much and I'm gripping at the light
The stars are falling with my tears hitting the ground
And the farther I am pulled with fear and anger
It fills me as I burst with laughter and realize
That the gun powder and lead that I have hid
Will finally bring me closer to holding your hand
Closer to you filling my heart again with your presence
And I hold my gun up high and and pray
As I pull the trigger against my skin, I burst..
From this awful nightmare..
