Nightmares

by Melissa Westfall   Jun 25, 2005


The nightmares they come,the nightmares they stay. For some strange reason, they wont go away. My body lies cold and still throughout the night, while my mind dances wildly with all the fright. I know their not true,but they roll throughout my brain. Around and around till I think I'm insane. I know that their false and their all in my head.But still I'm afraid to go back to bed. Wont someone please help me forget these bad things? Wont someone please help stop the torture it brings? What cause's this madness can anyone tell? Could it be crazy thoughts that make the head swell? Could it be just the loneliness that makes me feel so? What could it be that makes sanity go? Will someone say its all in your head, don't worry about it just go back to bed? Do I need help or will they just go away,can anyone tell, can anyone say?

    I love it it reminds me of one of my poems that I wrote last year I don't have it posted because my damn mom took all my books and so I can't right now but when I do, I would like you to read it and tell my what you think. I like this poem also becasue it is how I feel too. I'm afraid to go to sleep at night most of the time and when I do I don't get any rest. But any way again...I love it!!!
