Sonnets in My Head

12. Nightmares

Terrifying fright,
That shakes me to my deepest core.
Without light,
Endless tunnels tangle on the horizon.

Unable to get out, flopping around,
I'm just a dying fish, useless, terrified.

Trapped in a cage,
Or lost in a maze,
On thing is all the same;
You're my shining knight in white,
Saviour, my true and only love in life.
My meaning, my point of existence;
Someone worth waiting for,
Someone I could come home for.

Never backing down, never afraid,
I no longer stray away.

Surrounded by cackling darkness,
Whispering luring nothings in my ear,
You're still there, right next to me.
Watching, guarding,
My Guardian Angel, my shield.
I love you, Dear.
