Dread Poem by Emily Casbourn

Dread



I dreaded the day I met you
You told me how much you liked me
What a lie
I trusted you instantly
Now I know
Not everything is flowers of gold
You tricked me
I feel on my face
I didn't realise I was running in place
You being faster were always too far ahead
I couldn't keep up
Now look where I have ended up
Into a trailer park
Dreading the night
You hide inside my mind blindly
Day by day
Night taking night
Dread buries itself further into my soul
Not that I minded
I liked the game
I dreaded for someone elses sake
I lied there did you see
I had to you wouldn't set me free
I still hide under the covers
Making myself breath ever so lightly
Nothing hears me
I hear nothing
You're here once again
I dread your evil stench
I dread your face as it stretches
Black ontop of blackness
I couldn't stay there
I got up and tried to run
You followed me to my door
I tried to open my door
It didn't work
I dreaded this moment for so long
Don't do it to me please
I won't try it again
He just laughes and pulls me away from the door
I can't escape my innner soul
I dread the feeling he's somewhere near
I dread the night for he's always there
Watching me sleep
I can't get out
I cannot escape
