Dream walking
How can I be dreaming
when I know I am awake?
I see the ghost of myself
haunting my family
tormenting them.
Moving things around the house
whispering close to their ears
words they cannot understand
That I myself have never heard
a strange, sharp-tongued sound.
There is darkness in their meaning.
I feel their fear, they have aged.
Why would I be doing this
to the ones I love?
Have I been given a glimpse
of what is to become of me
when my life is done?
Can I change it before it happens?
