He knows the names of nightmares,
Though we all do at different times,
We know the way the wind grows still
Before they slip into our minds.
We know their icy grip,
The race of heartbeats in their palm,
The jolt awake into a world
That is disturbingly too calm.
We know the routine of the regulars;
The monsters under beds,
The voices calling in the night
And those inside our heads.
But his, they're something other,
They are longing and a lack,
Creatures darker than the shapes
That have been molded from the black.
They bring the kind of fear
That comes from waiting for the scare,
His are hyper-absent,
The things so glaringly not there.
You see, there's nightmares so much worse
Than those you pinch yourself to shake,
There's ones that whisper in your ear
"But you're already awake."

Hi everyone! I'm so excited to start writing the story here, my bestie and I wrote it a long time ago, and it's spooky season as well so, for all my horror obsessed sissys out there, I hope you like the story as much as I enjoyed creating it!
• Highly inspired by "Insidious" and "The Conjuring" •
