My eyes open
slowly
I see the clock
It reads 4:00am
It continues the beating
of ticking
I roll out of bed
and walk to the
window
I hear crickets,
the howling of the wind,
the cities cries
then I listen more carefully
as my eyes close
and I hear the river flow
peacefully,
moving calm and gentle
I imagine dipping my hand
in, feeling the sensation
of the cool rush
as if it could wash away
all my probelms in an instant
I open my eyes again and
I hear the rhythm of sprinkles
near by
the door creaks when the
wind greets it by force
I look over and
again my eyes deceive me
seeing a man with a dark
sweater hood hovering over
his eyes,
I see the man's small beard
the strong smell of bourbon
burns my nose,
he starts charging at me with a knife
in his right hand
.......but I don't move
.....I don't even flinch,
..... or scream
I close my eyes once more
visioning I'm finally free.....
free from everything
and eveyone
running through a large forest
rain drips on my face
I see myself smile
Actually smiling....
in all that second,
The man puts the knife to my throat.....
I open my eyes,,,, and see i'm in the room
alive... it was all a dream...
Just a dream..
