Dreams and Nightmares

They're not the same; not even nearly. You think they're two kinds of the same thing but they're not. What's a dream? A vision, a refuge, an ideal......a dream is something which very very very few really live through. Its what keeps you away from madness, from despair, even from mild disappointments. But i tell you, a nightmare's not something you just see. Its not an experience alone. Its a reality. A reality so real you can feel it laying its putrid hands across your face and neck and see its grin sending waves along your spine and see two cold eyes staring at you as it would on a shivering prey. You don't always live a dream but you always live a nightmare. Don't think they're the same.......i tell you the grin, the hands, the slime, the trembling......THESE are what make a nightmare......they make it real.  You have the key to your dream's door; but your nightmare always has a new lock to put on every possible exit you can come up with.......and the scream! Yes, the scream! Ha! You think that's the way out? Yet another dream! Ha ha!! Those cold hands are wrapped around your mouth and the face smiles as it lets you try to weasel out a shout for help.......but it won't work!! Your only hope? That it ends.
