Nightmares
I look, I look down below me
The sun yawed and set slowly, illuminating the sky amber-scarlet
Stars begun to dance
Owls hooted songs to the moon
Warmth around me grew
As my eyes are lit from the sky's orb, moon
I hummed along with the birds' melody
And looked down a li'l more
Animals happily retreated
Rainbow-coloured moths fluttered around
As fireflies spun gleefully
Whilst I gave an ear-to-ear smile
Yes, happy I seemed indeed
But really
Inside I am scared
Terrified of my own nightmares
My own nightmares being myself
Myself hurting those who I love
Hurting even those who I dislike
Ripping everything down, one by one
My nightmare being me
A monster who cannot be stopped
A monster who cannot be helped
A monster who cannot free itself from misery
Everyone hates such a terrifying monster...
