This is based on a recurring dream. Tonight I walk a darkened passage Fearing that which creeps behind As these questions grow insistent Probing deep into my mind I cry out into blackness But hear only echoed screams Then the thing leaps from behind me Overtakes me and my dreams Fighting, falling, suffocating And I know I soon will break Then light falls upon my nightmare It lets go and I awake Still I fear that lonely passage That I can't escape at night Haunted by those vicious questions Not quite banished by the light.
