Dreams & Nightmares

 


Turn the handle and pull,

open the doorway full.

Into the realm of dreams

and fantasy

as your visions

become a twisted reality.

 

Be they fleeting memories

of brighter days,

or adventures

filled with mystery.

Enter the ethereal misty sea of images.

Turn the pages

of the storybook world you inhabit.

For this is a good day.

A good night.

Not fearful

or full of fright.

 

How soon it can change.

Dark clouds pour

angry outbursts of rain.

An outrage of horrors to explore.

As the dream swirls into nightmare

and the page flicks forward once more.

Into the vast worlds of nowhere.

from fairy-tale to suspense.

The melting clock face ticks backwards,

chimes booming and intense.

 

Hear the sound of your heart drumming

as through warped corridors you are running.

Floor sticky, blood dripping from the walls.

Pictures and paintings watch

as you stumble and fall.

Anxiety heightens.

Your reflection seen through foggy eyes

shaking and frightened.

See through, transparent lies

stare back through the mirror void.

Reflective thoughts.

Feeling paranoid.

 

Through the centre of the room

trees grow, a forest overgrown,

the trees themselves moan.

The sky in full view, no roof.

Two looming full moons

like eyes looking down on you.

Lightning strike paints a mouth,

as the sky splits in two

and it bites down on you.
