Wayward Dream

It pulls me in, the not so peaceful sleep
Dark in nature, pain just around the bend
A wayward dream throughout the night
Sinful vision without an end

I feel someone’s breath and a touch
Pressure from a body but no one is in sight
Sinful vision without an end
A wayward dream throughout the night

What to do, I don’t want to do this
Hands that aren’t really there begin to descend
A wayward dream throughout the night
Sinful vision without an end

Now wrapped around my neck, choking
Against these invisible forces I struggle to fight
Sinful vision without an end
A wayward dream throughout the night

Need to escape, pull myself from this hallucination
Running out of energy, no more ways to defend
A wayward dream throughout the night
Sinful vision without an end

Usually I break free but it gets harder
With each dream diminishes the light
Sinful vision without an end
A wayward dream throughout the night

One day I may not awake from this nightmare
The pain a pressure, raped, I can’t comprehend
A wayward dream throughout the night
Sinful vision without an end
