In shadows deep, the silence screams,  
A haunting echo, lost in dreams.  
The stars above, like eyes that stare,  
As darkness wraps me in its lair.   
The moonlight fades, a ghostly thread,
Through fears that linger, filled with dread,  
In this embrace, our nightmares flare.  

I close my eyes in hopeful prayer
That dreams tonight hold no despair.
With every breath, the terror grows,  
A tapestry of dread that flows.  
The world retreats, consumed by gloom,
With visions, dark, my mind consumes.
I'm trapped inside a hapless snare.
