Nocturnal Fears
Woke up in the night propped up by two stern pillows as brow sweat dripped onto my chest. Bedroom dark couldnt see my hands, opened the window wide and let in gentle moonlight. Inhaled night air which tasted sweet till my heart eased its drumbeat of fear. Been drowning, as done a thousand times before, not in a sea deep green where dolphins play, but in the dark, lifeless ocean that laps lazily at the edge of life. Tried to read, couldnt concentrate the dark ocean flooded the village only road. My heart tolled sweat dripped onto the floor where house ants came and drank my terror.
