Night Terrors

A battle raves in me of words unsaid

And tears unshed.

I wake from dreams I fled from.

With pants mixed in hurried speeches of prayer.
My simple mind full of unspoken terror 

For my mind cannot comprehend such evil. 

So I turn to Him, He who won't reject

Take my gibberish and unravel them,

Ease my tears into smiles,

Turn my wars into peace.

I am not certain what I battle,

Only He is aware.

I see fragmented images, faces I can't remember 
Flashes of a past experienced and a future yet untold.  

 Somniloquy; conversations devoid meaning.

Sleep my solitude, is now a prison.

I roll to bed and jump out of my best friend.

Dreams chasing me to a confusing reality.

Prayer has to work. I don't know all,

Omniscient one

Reveal to me; take this blessing that feels like a curse.

Let my nights be mine once more and let

My days cease to be clouded with tears unshed and words not said.
