The Monster Returnes
I lay awake afraid to sleep, afraid the bad dreams will come as they so often do. As my eyes get heavy, i fight to stay awake until i can't fight any longer. I drift off into a deep sleep where darkness surrounds me and the monster lurks in the shadows awaiting my return. I know he is their for he always is, waiting and feeding off my fear. I hear him coming, he knows i am here, there's no where to escape him in my dreams where i relive his horrors night after night. I toss and turn in my sleep, trying to escape his grasp, he is getting closer and closer. I now feel his hot breath on neck, as chills run down my spine. He has found me once again, i am in his house of horrors once more. I fight to break free as the monster inflects unspeakable pain on me. The pain so intense, my fear rising, my mind racing, wondering will this be the end for me, will he take my life this time. The monster smiles at me as i cry out in pain, begging for it to stop. Just when i can't take anymore, i awake with a scream, in a dark room, my hair drenched in sweat, now sobbing, and scared. I gently awake my love telling him i need him, for the monster returned yet again to invade my dreams. He wrap's his arms tightly around me, holding me close assuring me the monster is gone, as i drift off to sleep in the only place i feel safe, in his arms.
