Nightmares

In the dead of night, I lay in bed,
As vivid nightmares fill my head,
My body trembles with fear and dread,
As I toss and turn in my tangled threads.

Ghosts of the past haunt my dreams,
A chilling presence that's not what it seems,
A memory I can't shake, or so it seems,
As I cry out into the night's silent screams.

I try to run from the fear within,
But my own mind is filled with sin,
A prison that I can't escape from within,
A never ending battle I can't win.

And so I lie here, night after night,
Hoping the fears will vanish from sight,
For now, they linger, and my heart takes flight,
As I wait for the first morning light.
