I closed my eyes and dreamed of you
like many nights before
except you stopped and looked at me
it knocked me to the floor
I saw the look upon your face
a silent, empty stare
it sent a shiver down my spine
that cold and hardened glare
I could not breathe, I could not move
felt stranded in my skin
I could not run, I could not hide
you found your way in
I tried to scream, I tried to shout
instead there came no sound
save me from this beastly dream
where I am strictly bound
