nightmares by association

i'm sitting here in the darkness of the night
terrified by dreams that woke me up in fright

look at the alarm clock...it's only three ten
i thought the nightmares were over...wrong again

i'm sitting here in the safety of my home
wonder if i should call someone on the phone

thought i heard a thumping noise...what was that sound??
heart beating way too fast...i've gotta calm down

i'm sitting here in my well lit living room
someone gets in...i'll nail 'em with this harpoon!!

shouldn't watch scary shows 'fore i go to bed
'cause the nightmares ensue...then i'm filled with dread

i'm sitting here,and i still can't get to sleep
'cause those scary movies sure gave me the creeps

dracula, frakenstein, all sorts of bad guys
invaded my dreams...thought i was gonna die!

i'm lying here, i'm back under the covers
from the latest dreams, trying to recover

i think i'll read a book...what harm can that do?
ooooh! stephen king's "the stand"! i hear that one's cool!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

we've all been guilty of this...heck, we don't
need to rent a scary movie, all we have to do
now is watch the news...there's enough scary
stuff going on in the world to give our minds
nightmares for years to come. ((((HUGS)))),
and may all of our dreams be sweet ones...
love, karla. :)

Excellent write. Fear is a wonderful poetic topic.

Very nicer, karla. Fear is part of life. It helps us to avoid things that might put our lives in danger. But fear can also prevent us from trusting and loving each other.

I know the feeling well I watched 'Sleepy hollows' with Johny depp last night,it gets rid of headaches the easy way.
I really loved this cute funny poem very much.

We are precarious creatures that love a scare that's for sure but as you said unfortunately
they have entered the real realm where abstract fear can't be understood but feared!
Well done, hugs, Gregg
