Thread: Dreams

Bombs go off,
The rockets blare,
Everyone screaming,
No one can hear.

You start to ache,
Your body goes numb,
Your mind is still working,
But you feel so dumb.

You try to get out,
Then you hear sirens whirl,
You cannot escape,
From this God awful world.

First you feel scared,
Then you get mad,
Next you are happy,
Then you are sad.

You then start to sweat,
Above your top lip,
And you feel it on your forehead,
It's starting to drip.

God, someone please help me,
You then start to shout,
Hoping someone will come,
And let you out.

You run and you run,
but still no escape,
You fell you will be forever,
Trapped in this place.

Then someone or something,
Makes you start screaming,
And you jump up and realize,
You were just dreaming.

You feel scared at first,
Then you think "oh well",
You go back to sleep,
Trying not to think of that hell.

So next time you wake,
Screaming while lying in your bed,
Just remember that dreams,
Are all in your head.
