I woke up shocked one night,
Thinking I had him in sight,
He said, “I’m here to take you with me”,
I said, “Yeah right, we’ll see.”
...
Something drives me today
I can feel
Something inside talks to me
And assures it’ll heal
...
“Had a bad dream son? ” the mother asked
“Yes mother”, answered the boy wiping his tears
He saw a monster that ate his mother; left him nothing except pieces of her heart in flesh
“He was tall, ugly and very scary Mother”, said the terrified child
...
Sleepless Nights
I woke up shocked one night,
Thinking I had him in sight,
He said, “I’m here to take you with me”,
I said, “Yeah right, we’ll see.”
He took me by my arm,
And dragged me to the door,
I begged and pleaded,
Not now, not anymore.
He locked us up in a room,
I shouted, I howled,
But who would come and help me?
No one would, they vowed.
The whole world heard me screaming,
But no one stepped up for me,
Every night was the same story,
Every night it was me.
