POETRY BY LAYEBA HUMANITY

That Devilish Dream

I was sleeping in a dark room

and got lost in a devilish dream.

Though people were around me,

I was sleeping alone in my dream.

Suddenly, I stood up in fear

and started descending the stairs.

Her grisly eyes were calling me down

and those red eyes began to stare.

I fell down the stairs violently,

and her terrible eyes came closer to me.

Without a face in that dark place,

she tried black magic on me.

My breath was pounding with fear,

words couldn't come from my tongue.

She extended her hands toward me

and said she would take my lungs.

Hearing this, I was scared,

and started running upstairs.

But her ugly hands pulled me down

and she grabbed my left leg tight.

Before anything happened to me,

I woke up from that nightmare.

Finally, there was a new morning,

I conquered fear and breathed fresh air.

The sun was singing and shining,

Birds were flying and chirping.

But, what was it? I couldn't stand.

My left leg had stopped working.
