Free verse, john's perspective, bit angst probably, just smth i came up with.
Please enjoy. –j.e.
Nightmares
Sweat, cold sweat, I can feel it on my forehead
fear clings itself to my bones
like an unwanted guest
Madness is taking a hold on me
everything feels surreal
I no longer know what reality is
where am I?
Dirt, dust, heat
unbearable heat.
The sun is burning my skin.
I'm shaking.
My breathing is fast
My heartbeat is strong
My hands are shaking
I can hear the bombing
I can feel the dust burning in my dry eyes
I have to run
Shooting
Hate
War
an endless circle
My shoulder hurts
Blood is everywhere
It's so loud, I wish you were here...
Bombs! Bombs? Or is it just my pounding heart that I hear?
I shake my head
I have to force myself back to reality
just another nightmare.
