They say sleep is a great escape
from everything,
But I say it's welcoming you
to a new terror,
And all you'll ever see is the
endless tunnel of nothing,
It takes you on twists and turns
of an entirely pristine horror.

Now for others it is where
their fears come true,
For some it is already reality
at the dead of night,
What they say is enough to
turn them purple and blue,
None but themselves
can help their plight,

I know this to be true because
I myself know,
That nightmares are not
to be messed around with,
Or else, instead of fading,
they will only grow,
They're horrific, lethal and
absolutely it is no "myth".
