My Darkest Nightmare

The sound of my heartbeat is what I hear when fall asleep,
resting my mind to a peaceful state, or so I thought.
Clouds swarm my vision, when trees start to appear.
Mist is hot like boiling water on the stove,
Burning my flesh to the bone.
Shadows appear around me in a circle,
Chanting to satan's song.
Stripping a animal of its innocence,
to do the ritual.
Changing me to a worshiping demon,
Screams erupt from me in a blaring haze.
Everything then stops,
So silent that you can hear my blood drop.
Losing so much, my mind is very muddle.
Opening my eyes I see my ceiling.
All too suddenly I sit up with a blaring pain,
I looked down and seen that the devil's mark is embedded to my skin.
Looking around I see my room,
thinking maybe I woke up from that terrifying place.
Maybe I woke up from that nightmare,
But who can explain my cursed mark.
