Monsters creep from dark corners
Planted in minds by dream sorters
Humans wake with a scream and a shiver
With a new memory oh so bitter
The room is dark and still
But from tired minds terrors spill
What is the cause of these foul dreams?
Is it fright? Is it fear? Is it sorrow that rings?
These dreams are labeled with a single word
One that all humans have heard
A word that makes children cry
A word that makes adults want to die
A word that haunts people day by day
A word that makes happiness go away
Will any immortal being take time to care?
Can anyone erase a nightmare?
