Bathed in the dark This creature stalks me I hear it's metal claws Smell the rancid breath Feel sweat tickling my back Stumbling through this fog Attempting to breathe Spinning in circles of streets Hallowed echoes from the stones Splashing in sticky, red puddles Blaise, it's morning I hear this shout Like a demented whisper It's time to wake up Darkness dissipates away Eyes burst open, filling with light *Only a dream?
