Last night I had a nightmare
Forbidden memories pressed me
Poisoning reality
Bringing up experiences I have erased
I was trying to wake up
But I was in a mental lock up
I kept reliving my anxieties, Making myself prisoner
Poor mind, Magnetic negative waves
Thoughts of horror
The only sense I felt was fear
I prayed the end wasn’t near
Looking for a sweeter proposal
A drunken voice called my name
A shade of dark mimicked my actions
I was captured and I was looking for my savior
I was punished and not by the creator
I thought this wouldn’t happen if I stayed awake
But it was no demon doing damage
It was me
I thought I was stuck in a cycle
But I was my own nightmare
