Something about the NIGHT ….! Dreams, nightmares, sleep, anything to do with the night, Old or new, let’s see it ✨ Night Terrors It’s you I call to in my dreams, To pull me out from the fear I’ve seen. The ones that hold me in captured fright, When slow motion kicks in, And my screams are no more than wheezing murmurs, When my thoughts are running faster, But my motions slow to a crawl, Drawing out the torture of the moment, But this time you don’t hear my strangled call for help, Maybe my will isn’t strong enough to transcend, From this dream state this time, God help me if I have to see out this nightmare, I focus and force my broken earthy plight across the dream dimension, Desperate to reach the woken world, But still you don’t save me, The nightmare encroaches, The panic builds within me, I choke, There’s no sound from me, Which means you won’t know to wake me, The impending realisation hits me like final last words, My frightened whisper rasps and splutters, I hear an old line in my head - If you die in a dream then you die in real life... My panic turns to savage rage and I scream, I scream in defiance for I won’t be broken here, I scream in the face of all my fears, I scream so strong and loud, That I tear a rip in the fabric separating my dream and reality, It doesn’t slow my impending fate, It ebbs closer still and I feel the acrid warmth wash over my face, Just as I release my last defiant scream, You reach for me, Like an anchor reaching through the depths, Pulling me back, Shaking me awake from behind, Everything fades as you pull me out of my slumbered suicide, You heard me through the hole I made, I open my eyes to the safety of familiarity, Back in my bed, In the safety of my room, My eyes wide scanning for threats, I’m next to you, My night saviour, But then, As familiar reality surrounds me, I can still feel my dream, For a second, Just a moment, My fear has followed me into my reality, Through the tear I made to save myself, Both worlds momentarily co existing,

Welcome Natalie. 😊
If you had to choose ……
One thing that you get from writing ! For me … “Making emotions” The feeling of accomplishment when a piece of writing creates the feelings in the reader that I intended it to create. What’s yours ?

I love seeing the look on people's faces as they read or talk about my stories and they ask for more. 😊
