just a recording of a dream i keep having.


Screaming in the hollow world of imagination
trapped with all the nasties of the mind
trapped with all the fears of a lifetime

tearing the flesh from my face

in an attempt to open my eyes

your not free, from what you see
what your near, is what you fear
when you cry, your screaming to die
from your face you bleed, just wanting to be freed

free to open your eyes

standing by myself
standing in an open plain
watching to clouds rape the stars
listening to them scream in pain

the ground begins to tremble
like someone breathing while in shock
then the world changes before me
as the earth begins to drop

now i'm trapped on a cliff
terrified of heights
brightness right behind me
terrified of lights

make it all go away
please let me open my eyes

then your there with me, whispering for me to run
brushing the tears from my cheeks, telling me to run
stepping back from me?
SCREAMING AT ME TO RUN

i wake up,
skin silked with sweat,
blood swirling with the water on my face,
skin under my finger nails.

i was trying to open my eyes.

Oh my god! BAM! FUCK! This piece just hit me in the face and I loved it. I will be keeping an eye on your other works. To point out, towards the end you repeated the word "face" twice.
