NIGHTMARE DREAM


NIGHTMARE DREAM (inside the being of a war victim)p

I sometimes 
Wonder
If my life
Is a dream...

Where up
Is down
Wrong is 
Right...

Where living
Has to fight
Life!

Perhaps, it is
A reverie
In which I 
Lay
To the bone
Weary...

Maybe, am
Cowering...
Afraid of everything 
Happening around 
And to me!

An internal battle 
Between 
Mind and heart...
Unheard cries
Of àn imprisoned0
Soul...

Could I be 
Caught 
In what I feel,  
Hear and see
In my agonizing 
And treacherous 
Sleep dream?

If this is
Indeed so,
Wake me quick
To a fairer 
Ŕeality...!
