This I Call A Dream, Come True

by CanUKissAwayMyPain   Feb 6, 2009


Tossing and turning.
Nightmares here they come once again.
Throwing me into the shadows.
Leaving me in completely pain.
Freezing from head to toe.
These blankets won't keep the warmth.
Biting my lips. Holding my breath.
Trying to stop the tears from fall down my face.
Thinking of happy thought.
My friends, my family, candy.
Nothing working.
Wanting all this pain to go away for eternity.
My trusty friend always there when I need him.
Cutting into the skin.
Burning all around.
Numbness soon takes over.
Falling asleep forever... with blood all around.
This I call a dream, come true.

    ^^I adore the imagery you created within these opening lines, it creates such vivid pictures in my mind, simutaneously pulling me into the poem.

    ^^I liked the ending lines, full of pain and heartache that I can't help but -feel- everything that you're describing.

    I found the flow to be of in a couple places but other than that, I liked this.

    Leaving me in completely pain.
    This line doesn't make sense love .. Try "leaving me to wallow in pain .. "

    Nothing working.
    Nothing's working .

    I think you should have kept the rhyme scheme you started with .. It was really nice . But otherwise , I like the idea .. It's easy to relate to . Really well done .. 5/5
