Nightmares

Falling asleep

Has never been so painful

So painful indeed

I need to take pills

Just to make it through the night

But sometimes that dosnt even help

I wake up screaming

In the dead of night

All because of you

I wake up showered in sweat

Fear rising inside

Nightmare of people at school

Nightmares of you

I bite my bottom lip

To the point of bleeding

I dont know how much longer i can keep all this s**t

Hidden inside of me

Locked away in a bottle

Put inside a safe

The safe inside my personal bank

Deep inside a volcano

All so people wont know.

Im so tired of keeping it inside

But i know i have to

My mind is not a safe place

It tried to warn me with horrible, terrible dreams

But i tell myself to keep it all inside of me

Even if it torchers me

Soon i'll go insane, i know

But wont it be worth if people dont know the truth?

Of course.

I think this was a good poem. I really liked it. Nightmares are horrible. I hate them myself. I have them sometimes and then wake up scared out of my mind. I feel like I'm going to go through what happened in my dream. You did a good job on this though. I understand what you mean. Thanks for sharing.

i just loved how you ended this..
i keep pumping everything and storing it in my mind
but its never safe ,who said it will not explode one day
i really loved it,there is certain creativity in all this
again once these thoughts arranged and more drama put in it
maybe some more romance,and be more theatrical about it
it would look even nicer ,i loved this too ,too much
lovely write

What a tribute to keeping secretes and how it affects our minds and they can affect our bodies. You hit key points on why people do this, how they do it and what they gain from doing it. The poem is rather excellent I must admit.

Did you open up my head and take a peak inside? Great job on this. Reading it helped let out some of those emotions. I hope writing it did the same.
