Nightmare...

[rissa_08]

My body goes into shock

I'm twitching, I'm Itching

To get out of this skin

There's bugs crawling over me

There's needles pricking my skin

Then i awake

Heavy breathing

It was just a dream is all i can repeat

But i cant shake this feeling

I still feel the crawling sensation on my skin

I still feel the needles pricking my flesh

So i get up out of a jumble of blankets and pillows

But my legs can hardly support me

I feel so weak

I work up the the strength

And walk to my mirror

The image i saw still haunts me

Giant bloody tears, bugs all around

Small needles poking out of my flesh

I scream in horror

I thought it was just a dream

My brain starts to go crazy

I can't think of what i can do

I start scratching at my skin, pulling at the needles

But it only seems to get worse

I don't know what to do

I've got a plan

I'll call for help

I scream with every bit of energy i have

But noone rushes to my aid

I start to feel my knees give out

I'm falling to the floor

But the floor opens up

And it feels like i'm never gonna come to a stop

My screams are becoming weaker

I'm falling farther from what i knew

Somebody save me

Make this stop

I see the ground

I come to a hault, Smack the ground

My body aches i can't move

I'm all alone

I begin to cry

Then i scream an sit up in my bed

It really was a dream

I wipe up the tears and wipe up the sweat

I'm really okay...

I'm alive...
