Nightmare 3
A twenty minute nap
Is an eternal sleep
I can’t live through my nightmares
But I wake in soaking weep
I went to a secluded spot
I love hiking in the nude
Fell asleep in the mountains
Not easy to intrude
Sun peeking between foliage
Making a serene place
It’s time for me to relax
Enjoy my own space
I feel hot
I’m seeing me when I was young
Flashes of old pictures
From when my life had begun
I see a match
The sulfur I smell
He lights my pictures on fire
Too late to yell
There goes my young life
No one else will know
What looked like as a baby
There’s nothing but ashes to show
Back to the motel
So much for relaxation time
Please don’t let me fall asleep
These nightmares are not mine
Getting ready to go back home
Starting to pack my things
I have to drive past his house
Wondering what nightmares that will bring
It’s a terrible feeling
To constantly die
By a man you love so much
Who just won’t give love a try
