Night terror

Damien Michael Thu May 22, 2008 2:27 pm

Picture of a man tossing and turning in his sleep, tormented by the dream of his own short-comings. Images race through his mind a million a second as his body writhes in anguish. A purple-haired girl, smiling and saying "I love you". the two of them at the local park, sitting under the shade tree, laughing and joking. A candle-lit dinner and the girl in lingerie. Now another man enters the scene. Flashes of red and violence. The man holding the purple-haired girl to his side, kissing her. More violence. Blood, a torn heart, a broken neck. The screams and cries to cease from a distraught woman in the background. Damien continues to toss, more and more feverishly until he lunges out, striking the wall, screaming in a cold sweat; heart racing, quickened breathing. He lets a few tears roll down his cheeks before trying to right himself and laying back down.

"Why? Please god make it stop.........WHYYYYY!!!!!!!!?!?"
