I awoke today from transparent sleep,
From a disturbing dream, Through that house I did creep, That residence of seemingly shadows, And the ghosts that haunted them, In pursuit of evidence, The ghastly thing I found, Made me so nauseous, The horrid smell, I turned away and fled, And into an open room I ran, And there he sat asleep, I needed to be cautious, To not stir him from that still frame, Or I won’t be able to get away, I escaped through the door, Into the afternoon air, And fell among thorny bushes, Cutting my arms and legs, And catching my hair… That is when I stirred, And became aware that it wasn’t real, Although I couldn’t shake that sense of corruption, I went throughout the day, Suddenly it was triggered back to my mind, As sharp as I vividly remembered it, Why is it still on my mind? A premonition I felt deep in my heart, I’m ready for this to be over.
