so, this started as a christmas poem, but ended as a people-having-nightmares-and-a-cliffhanger-end-that-may-never-get-an-sequel-and-only-small-mentions-of-christmas poem. anyway, i don't have anything else for christmas, so just R&R and merry christmas!

It was the night before Christmas and there was a case
Everyone examined the man with no face
The skin, it was missing, the eyes were cut out
The wife of the victim started to shout
And fainted, it was a horrible sight
Policemen had thrown up, the csi's in fright
The body stood up and walked around
It screamed her name, what a horrible sound
Then someone came forward and said "It's just a dream"
And Sara woke up with a terrible scream

One hour till Christmas and the body had disappeared
Instead of it lay there a man with a beard
No one came to visit, no one had missed him
He died all alone in the city of sin
His soul wandered forward, into a street
Searching for someone he wanted to meet
He searched all around and then he saw her
She ate and was acting like he never was there
Then someone came forward and said "It's just a dream"
And Gil, he woke up with a terrible scream

She walked through the streets, she was all alone
And all around her were people of stone
She searched through the statues but the ones she hold dear
A man and a woman, where nowhere near
She climbed a building and what she saw there
Put her into a terrible scare
Her love and her daughter, statues also
Were pushed off the roof by a man like a shadow
Then someone came forward and said "It's just a dream"
And Catherine woke up with a terrible scream

A man wandered through a shop by himself
Suddenly something fell of the highest shelf
It was a box, empty and growing
Soon there were so much nothing was glowing
He tried to escape, climbed to the top
And slowly made his way out of the shop
Then there was one shaped like a shark
It ate him and left him alone in the dark
Then someone came forward and said "It's just a dream"
And Nick, he woke up with a terrible scream

A woman was missing and he was scarred
It was the woman who took his heart
He searched information and talked to the crews
Soon her picture was all over the news
He never told her he lover her and that was his fear
That he never could, that she never would be near
And then they found her, but before he could say
She was dead in his arms, blood finding its way
Then someone came forward and said "It's just a dream"
And Warrick woke up with a terrible scream

He followed her round, she was his love
A light shining on her, from far above
He knew he had not that place in her heart
But if he tried, it might get a start
He walked after her, tripped and fell
She looked at him, it was his change to tell
He wanted to tell her, but before he had said
There was an explosion and he was dead
Then someone came forward and said "It's just a dream"
And Greg, he woke up with a terrible scream

There was a shootout, suspects were falling
Then it was a cop and people were calling
Everyone looked at him, gave him the blame
He fled the scene with a horrible shame
He thought his thoughts would go after a midnight swim
But even the fishes blamed the murder on him
Where could he go, he couldn't escape
Then the ghost came and drowned him in the lake
Then someone came forward and said "It's just a dream"
And Jim, he woke up with a terrible scream

He had to report to his grey-haired boss
His love was with him, what a terrible loss
Even the blonde was better than him
And the man who was with her overcame his sin
The brown-hared man was never buried, he was
And the lab guy finished above him in class
The cop never shot someone, he had taken the fall
Leaving him, only him, the blame for it all
Then someone came forward and said "It's just a dream"
And Ecklie woke up with a terrible scream

There was a party, it was Christmas eve
Everyone drank, except someone named Steve
Catherine and Warrick had the time of their life
And Greg thought again that he was five
Even Gil and Sara had something to drink
Not as much as Nick though, he threw up in the sink
Jim was telling stories of what he did these days
And Ecklie stood in a corner, mad as always
Then, from outside came a terrible scream
And they got back to work, while someone said "It's just a dream"
