Nightmares

Nightmares exist outside of logic, and there's little fun to be had in explanations; they're antithetical to the poetry of fear. ~ Stephen King

A chilling darkness descends

Night’s shadows birth dreadful dreams

Even the rising sun brings no solace

I have them occasionally, to where I'll wake up screaming from someone standing over me or at the foot of my bed. I've got to turn the light on for a while to calm myself down. I've never written about them though. Perhaps I will! My best to you, Mary!

Kelly, thank you for reading and sharing your thoughts. I apologize for the delayed response. Unsettling dreams can certainly cast a shadow over the night. Sometimes, writing about them helps bring clarity or at least a bit of peace.

Lorry, thank you for your visit. I apologize for the delayed response I’ve been away. As for the orange abomination, it truly is the stuff of nightmares.

Lovely, vivid words you write... but a chilling dream...not so unusual... I have them too... I hope you awakened happy... Dreams still bewilder me...Why are they so dark sometimes? and seem so real?
I don't have the answer, but wish I did....
Warmly, B

Betty, thank you so much for your visit and thoughtful comment. I apologize for the delayed response. I’ve been away dealing with some health issues. I completely share your views on dreams; they remain a mystery to me as well. I rarely dream, but when I’m unwell, it feels like I’m transported straight into the twilight zone, surreal and unsettling.
