Nightmarish Dreams

There is no grave

Of morbid gloom

More homely than

My mind's bedroom

Alone at night

My thoughts exhume

A conscious corpse

From sentient tomb

 

Awake in Death's

Eternal sleep

Necropolis

Of counting sheep

Shadows tip-toe

Demons creep

As Grim awaits

My soul to reap

 

I contemplate

These coffin themes

Insomnia's

Sepulchre schemes

Unresting place

Life's casket seems

To only hold

Nightmarish dreams
