Nightmare

 Nightmare 


In the realm of dreams, a haunting night,

Darkness reigned, extinguishing the light.

The sun, a fading ember in the sky,

Its brilliance dimmed, as shadows loomed up high.


The moon, a pallid wisp, began to wane,

Its ghostly glow, began to drain 

The stars above, in silence, vanished 

In that abyss, my hopes were banished 


Darkness engulfed my memories, like a shroud,

My heart, in fragments, lost within the cloud.

In this chilling void, my soul did weep,

As sorrow's grip pulled me into the deep.


When morning broke, and I regained my sight,

I found, to my dismay, the absence of light.

For in that night, the fates had been unkind,

In waking, I discovered, I was truly blind.
