AFTER NIGHTMARE



Was a longtime ago, in a time so old I can only remembered it as young, I stood all alone in front of several closed doors. It was late in the night, and I woke up with fright, after having a nightmare which opened my eyes to my dim litted room. I got up in a zoom: Oh, I wanted my mom! Oh, I wanted her soon! And I went to her room so afraid in the dark to the place where she slept together with my dad...

...and I heard her like crying along with my father... Could they be just having the dream that I had?

In my dream I was walking with mom by the park, and a black bird's sudden flight went catching my sight, then I said ''Look, mom!'' before I looked at her back: There's a skeleton man that was holding my hand!!! And it smiled like a man with its odd count theet scary: ''If you walk by my side you'll never have to worry... he he he he...heeeehhhh.''

And I called ''MohhhMMyyy!'' dearest, unlock the damned door 'cause I also have felt the cold touch of its bones, I have seen the deep hollows that stand for its eyes: this skelleton man dressed in black and white strippes...

...wanted to take me away.
