Just A Dream

I look up only to see darkness

The clouds are no longer visible in the sky

The sun, once bright, is no longer there

And the only the only thought  running through my head is "Why?"

Street lights illuminate the streets

A thick fog covers the ground

Walking carefully to avoid falling

Staying silent though no one is around

Suddenly the nearest buildings catch on fire

The invisible clouds release all of their rain

Running to avoid the worst of it

Following the street lights down the lane

Reaching a nonburning building to take cover

A figure in a dark cloak runs away

Though concerned for their safety

I'm glad that they didn't decide to stay

The rain lets up a little

As I walk into the mist

Making it halfway down the street

When someone grabs onto my wrist

They drag me though the streets, hood covering their head

I yank my hand away and start to run

They chase me, never reducing thier pace

All the while I'm wishing for the sun

Eventually I'm caught and dragged away

Thrown into what seems like a puddle of mud

Holding my hand out in front of me

Realizing that in truth it is blood

A figure pulls out a gun and shoots me

The pain causes me to let out a loud scream

I jump out of bed, take a deep breath

Thankful that it was only just a dream
