Wake me

part one

By Kristina White Published 4 years ago 1 min read

Every night I fall asleep only to be entrapped by the same nightmare.

Wandering through the paths, each blacker than a moonless night, the breath draining from my lungs.

Taunted by the faceless demons laying in wait, to rake my soul to their evil master.

Every breath I take, is weaker than the last.

The dark spirits laughter, filling me with fear.

Wake me from the dreams that torment my decaying soul.

Wake me Oh Lord, end this pain I feel, fore which there is no cure.

Suffering the painful days and nights filled with nothingness.

Wake me from the pain with which I am filled.

Now, I wake....yet the pain still thrives within me.

On the day I finally meet my maker, my cure will come.

For my cousin Daniel Richard Vough II

Every day a struggle, CF had a hold on him.
