I dance restlessly in the dark an unbearable waltz
Of tossing and turning
Rolling and folding into my pillow
Again, lulled into the arms of deep sleep
Into a world of unimaginable horror
Faceless abominations seem much too real
Bombs blare and boom
Pained voices
Bone-chilling screams
Echo off cracking, splintering walls
Floors vanish
Collapsing in the dark
Landing twisted, misshapen
Metallic warmth surrounds me
A ghastly horror is upon me
Evil engulfs this space
Death’s scythe tugs at my faint heart
Paralyzed, locked in Grim’s limbs
I cannot move or see
But I feel its eyes upon me
I dare not see what’s come for me
I do not want to know
A disembodied voice speaks to me
Open your eyes
See what I bring
I cannot
I will not see
And will myself from sleep
Into another unimaginable horror
Death stares back at me

Beautiful, love this
Thank you!! I’m beginning to appreciate the daily prompts. Allows me to be somewhat creative.
I often visit your site and have noticed that you don’t update it
often. More frequent updates will give your site higher
authority & rank in google. I know that writing posts takes a lot
of time, but you can always help yourself with miftolo’s tools which will shorten the time of creating
an article to a few seconds.
Jeramy, thank you for the advice. Like most, finding the time between writing novels, working a full time job, and life, it’s a little daunting. With so much on my plate, I’ve decided one or two reviews a month is all I have time for. But I will check out miftolo’s tools. Again thank you!
