2010
Save me from the nightmare I lived so long ago
Calling me,
Haunting me
Placing me within a darkly world
It whispers in my ear, when the music comes to an end
It flashes before my eyes
As the scene flows into the net
It cringes at my throat
As the food swims through
My mind
Ready to take a leap forward
Instead lingers at starting line
Passed by those many years ago
You seeped those awful moments into my conscious
It tugs at my heart
My stomach prepared to implode
Blocking the securities I possess
I want to wake up,
But this sleep
It seems
Will never cease.
