Poems
May 2014
Sandman
While you sleep
I see you smile
I hope you're dreaming of me.
On fitful nights
I'll stroke your cheek
to soothe your breathing.
Oh, you might
wake up in a fright
wide eyed with spite
That's why I
have bound you limbs
so that you cant fight.
Don't you worry about my wife.
You'll meet her soon
at the tip of this knife.
The air thickens
with the perfume of horror
clinging to life.
Finally my sweet
we'll be together
Like I always dreamed.
And I was going to write a happy poem for once. Then this came out instead. Ah...well.
