In dreams no one hears you scream!
My poem for the 'Scream' challenge.
My scream was loud I still hear the echo.I woke up but couldn’t open my eyes.My hair was soaked, pillow stain.I felt terror standing beside me.I didn’t move in case he knew I was still alive.But am I still alive?My heart was raising.I remember standing on the wooden bridge.A dark river with ghastly rapids looking to swallow me in.A stranger standing close to me in a black hooded cape.I turned round to see who he was.His forceful hand tried to push me in the untamed river.Who was he?Why did he try to push me in?Did he vanish into blood red twilight sky?Why did those men walk away from me?Didn’t they hear me scream?It took me a while to get up.I lit my house and searched every room.I now look under my bed everyday before I sleep.In dreams no one hears you scream!
