Nightmare


Running through the face of terror’s
golden eyes of molten fires.
Wafting wraiths as stretcher-bearers.
Phantoms feeding funeral pyres.

Terror’s grasp a fiery coffin,
lined with mind’s volcanic flashes.
Knowing I have been there often,
groping cinders, breathing ashes.

Morning heavy with drops of dew,
I trudge last weary, lonely mile.
Waking to arms that comfort me,
basking in sunrise of her smile.
