the night

the night

I awaken from the night

a ghost unchained

free from the horrors

of the underworld

I awaken from the night

a laughing clown

one step away

from falling down

I awaken from the night

a crying child

tears are falling

faith gone wild

I awaken from the night

time and time again

night terrors come alive

I wake up in them

Greetings Corky,

Clever write replacing the sub-conscious, in the light of the conscious wake and the conscious, in the place of sub-conscious night terrors..Some times our dreams can be more acceptable, (with the regrets of having to wake), then reality itself, tends to lend us fully awake.......Jim
