A soundless nightmare.

A chiming
deep inside your ears
and silence
in your screams
The lights
are gone
The switches
fallen absent as it seems
Just find
a knob
run up
the stairs
while blackness blankets eyes
Find
a match
and light a flame
continue silent cries
Look deep inside
the empty rooms
for signs of waking life
but no ones there
they've left you here
in lonely aching strife
The chiming
getting louder
as vibrations shake the door
Of a closet
in your brothers room
and you go cross the floor
You turn
the knob
and all you see is
RED RED rushing down
The bodies
of your family
tied up is what
you found
RUN RUN away
back to your room
hide under
hidden sheets
Making sure
you're still alive
hand feeling
thumping beats
Let blackness
fill your eyes some more
to erase
what you've seen
Chant softly deep inside
your head
OH GOD PLEASE BE A DREAM
Oh god please be a dream
please let this be a dream...

emotionally fufilling, deeply
intence, simply put, your
writting is unforgetable . . .
