Night Terrors Poem by Eyes Open

I sense your presence
Ready to torment me again
You come to me night after night
Watching me
Torturing me
Killing me...
The caress of your icy fingertips
The feel of your callous lips
The intence gaze of your spiritless stare
You make my head swim with thoughts
You make it hard to breathe.
No! I must fight!
Fighting with my inner demons
I begin to gain strength
I look you dead in the eye
And show that you can't hurt me anymore
Your eyes widen, your breath comes out in panicked gasps
You realise that you've lost
And flee into the starless night.
