Nightmares or Real?
What are these voices
I hear ever night?
The screaming, the yelling,
What is all that?
It feels so real,
But I’m not sure if it is.
Is it just the nightmares I’m having,
Or are the voices from outside?
I’m always scared when I go to bed,
And wonder if they’ll come again.
Every time I pray to God that;
“Please, don’t let them.”
I still hope that they’ll not come,
I still pray to God that they’ll not come.
But, still, I wonder,
Is it nightmares or real?
