The Nightmare

By Jackie Almasy

--

Bliss above

Tranquility below

Endless grove

No glow

Trickled drop

Echoing silence

Time stop

Hidden violence

Cracking glass

Shattering ground

Devils harass

Safety's absence

Falling fast

Whispers call

So vast

Summoning all

Emotions amuck

Increasing heartbeat

Endlessly stuck

Yearning heat

Bitterly cold

Hateful lies

To hold

Love's reprise

You're here

With me

Hidden care

Beautiful chivalry

Hold on

Hope ahead

Confusion begone

Tight thread

Tenderness bring

Grasp onto

Strong King

Courageous Munto

I started writing this out on my little pad of paper while taking a moment of silence with my iPod and watching a sunset. After 8 days of working, a day off was seriously appreciated. I recently added a song called "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni" by Eiko Shimamiya to my J-Pop playlist and just got lost in it. While watching the sunset, the song started bringing images together in my head. Basically, this is a first person point of view with Yumemi having a nightmare.

This was the result. A much needed thanks to people who corrected me on the image I found recently of Munto III. It's awesome to know Ichiko and Suzume will have a part in the third movie.

Two new pieces are in the works, one being a one-shot with a mature rating and another poem. Stay tuned guys!

Till next time,
