Nightmare

When day breaks,
the shadows vanish,
light seeps in,
and the nightmare fades,

Dreams of horrid things,
creeping, scratching,
at the walls,
during the night,

It seems morning is too far,
nothing can stop
this darkness,
but then it comes,

The screams,
the high pitched shrills,
in the dark,
do not seem to quit,

Then the sun rises,
bringing the day,
and making
the nightmare end.
