Comet Tail: Part I
              by:Shane berry
her black eye was swollen,
my heart was racing like i was awake.
i knew it was a nightmare, but i called it a dream.
cuts and guns, knifes and bruises.
life and death, love and hate.
he shouted, i fought.
she screamed, i defended.
he was faster than i had ever seen anyone strike.
i was hitting him dead on.
he pulled out the metal gun.
my breath is taken, my stomach sinks.
blood shoots out of my back.
i fall to my knees,
there is no emotion in my face.
he begins to walk, i stand, blood, 
blood, is everywhere.
i leap.
he aims, 
i grab,
he shoots
i smile.
he missed.
i turn the gun to his face with a laugh i end his life.
by his hand.
i drop to the floor, 
she runs to my side.
Alexa
she stares into me, like i'm a door.
the blood is red
crimson
violent.
love.

Good write. Chivalry is not dead. Fighting for love at the greatest cost.

Nice visual's and creates a fast paced scene of hand to hand combat. In the end he ends up the winner and the injured lady. Nice poem!

I love it! Dreams are great to exorcise! lol
Excellent flow to this, sounds an intense dream love! The dream seems indicative of someone aiming to take control of a situation, trying to be heard, not invisible!
Awesome

Repetitive dreams often have important meanings. To me, you dreams has a message telling you to fight for something you love, something very important. Your poem is very well written and I enjoyed reading it.

This dream is frightening, but the poem is amazing. You did a great job with this.
