Nightmare

I'm living inside a dream.
There is no exit.
The only way out is to wake up.
But that is impossible.
I am forever stuck inside this dream.
Or, is it a nightmare?
What is the difference?
All dreams must end.
Does that not make them nightmares?
If you are trapped inside a dream,
then it really is a nightmare.
Is it not?

After so long,
I stopped trying to escape this Dreamland.
No matter how far I run or how fast,
the door just slips away,
the ground swallows it up,
the fires eat the wood.
Leaving nothing behind.
No matter how loud I scream,
there is no one to hear me.
Just the endless World of Dark.

The monsters are creeping up out of the shadows,
grinning.
My only salvation is you.
But you were on the other side of the door.
And no matter how hard I try,
I can't piece it back together.
The silence is slowly killing my heart.
It is turning black bit by bit.
Soon there will be nothing left to save.

My mind is crumbling.
Shattering.
My only piece of sanity is being ripped out.
All that I have left is the Creature living inside of me.
No way to out run it.
It is slowly gaining on me,
tearing apart everything in it's path.
There is no one trying to save me.
You don't seem to care any more.
You have turned your back to me.
The one person that I trusted with my secrets.

The ground is crumbling under my feet.
And I fall.
Down the rabbit hole.
Only difference, there is no Wonderland waiting,
there is only death and pain.
All light is fading.
No way to wake up.
All hope is gone
It is gaining.
The peace of Death is slowly coating me.

Now, who says that nightmares can't be pleasant?
It means no more worries.
No more problems.
Freedom.
So who is to say what is a good dream or what is a bad dream?
It all depends on your point of view.
What is your definition of a nightmare?
A dream in which you can't wake up,
or is it a dream that ends before it's time?
Make up your mind before all your secrets catch up with you,
and swallow you whole.
We wouldn't want that, now would we?

So hey, hows it hangin'? This one is similar to my other poem, Only Haft a Mind Left. It is about Lavi, only this time he is under Road's control. And as for the last part, lets just say that he was ever so slightly delirious. Kinda haft fighting haft giving up.

I really liked how this turned out. It is probably my favorite right now. Tell me what you think! Please? What do you say? Just one little review?

Sincerely the ever InsaNE,
