Between Two Worlds

Darkness awakens.

I look around in a panicked sweat,

heartbeat racing and breath heavy.

I see them.

The writing on the chair.

The body in the corner.

The thing approaching.

I talk but not heard.

I feel around but nothing felt.

Only my heart breaks out of my chest.

The cobwebs blind,

The fog covers.

Breath fills as I stare at the chair.

The writing fades.

To the corner,

The bag sits.

To the thing,

My covers bunch.

The fog lifts and cobwebs vanish.

My phone lights.

I awake.
