Did you awaken
from a dream
and find nothing
was as it seemed?
A nightmare
more vivid than before.
A scream echoing,
bouncing from the walls.
You cover your ears
before you realise
that scream its yours.
Feeling your throat pulled taut,
a knot in your stomach,
as sweat pours
and your heartbeat stutters
then starts to soar.
You know what you saw...
That was no dream,
of this you are sure.
There was a figure looming
at the bedroom door,
a bellowing roar booming
through every brick,
crumbling dust
upon the carpeted floor.
He was there. Right there.
You look around yourself in panic,
A healthy dose of fear.
You could see his breath in the air,
You can feel
the cold frightened atmosphere.
So where has he gone?
Your eyes dart around,
like creeping insects scattering
from feet that pound.
You listen intently to every sound,
just trying to discern
that terrifying growl.
Where did he go,
He was there, then blip.
He vanished into the air,
soundless, menacing.
The atoms spin with electricity.
Is it just your mind playing tricks
over your sleepy eyes?
Was he a figment of a tired brain,
or reflections of the moonlit rain?
Then how come you can still smell
that pungent scent
lingering in the air,
and feel the presence
standing right there?
