Charis
"Nightmare"
I once had this nightmare
And I couldn't seem to get out.
No matter how hard I tried,
No matter how loud I would shout.
I was losing more friends day by day,
I had secrets I couldn't tell.
Nothing was going right for me.
It was like I was in Hell.
I was losing my brother who was once my best friend,
And all I could do is cry.
I kept falling further down hill,
It wasn't even worth it to try.
In this nightmare it seemed that years went by
And they just got worse and worse.
I couldn't remember the last time I laughed.
It was like I was put under a curse.
Every time I looked into a mirror
I hated what I would see.
I would try to run but get nowhere
Because what I was trying to get away from was me.
I stopped believing in Angels
Because I needed so desperately to be saved.
Instead I felt I was being taken by the Devil
And that I was being enslaved.
In this dream no one could be trusted
Because I was always being stabbed in the back.
Even those I cared for left me
And I could never get them back.
It seemed like I was alone
Even though there was always someone around.
I was sitting in my room in silence
Hoping to never be found.
When I finally had enough of this nightmare,
I stood up and started to scream.
The silence was broken by my own voice,
And thats when I realized it wasn't a dream.
