Before I Wake
by NancyGene

Sleep, I’m afraid to lie down.
Down, the street of my fears.
Fear, I know that in dreams.
Dream, I am trying to scream.
Scream, I can’t make a sound.
Sound, of the rasp of my help!

Help, is my waking in tears.
Tears, fill my eyes as I look.
Look, for the light to turn on.
On, and the night is still here.
Here, the threat is too real.
Real, as my soul is to take.
