Nightmares

Contributed by Overstated on Friday, 3rd September 2004 @ 04:56:30 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



I used to be scared of the dark now I’m frightened of it
An ocean of the invisible, a shark of death
A vision breaking, a moment fused
I can’t be alone much more
I need a candles’ glamour
I’ll drink the time away, I’ll cultivate grandeur
And shed love; strip the regret with every sip

I miss your shallow touch, your deep lips
Your petite hands gliding through my finger tips
Your vigorous thighs and you’re fighting fists
Pushing me away, away, away when I touch your hips
This feeling of empty; is better than being an enemy
Still, this darkness makes me blind to the core
I can’t remember what you know and what I hide
I can’t feel your pulse as I reach for the door
I can’t tell you what’s in front and what’s behind
Still spindling, I begin to fall...

Because I miss the sniffle in the rain
The thunder among the shores
And telling you- ‘it’s alright’ to a rapturous applause
In my shadowy skull we’re Hollywood
Played to a script,
The lead star is just misunderstood
Delivering his lines
That keep you confined
That keeps this picket fence around us
That keeps us embracing despair
Because I miss the sniffle in the rain
And living as a pair…

What’s real and what’s a nightmare?
My reminiscences decayed
These nightmares will soon fade
Then you’ll stay…
