NIGHTMARE # 6 & 9

[synapticgate]

I woke to a thumping in a darkened room
There was no one but me there, or so I
assumed, just me and my heart beating
like a universe in my chest.
So heavy, so hollow-sunken I suppose
Was the thought that nothing would ever
come to a close, that I screamed until
my voice was no more, faded and gone.

Last night, I dreamed of green eyes burning
through me, not an angel's hair away.
And a mouth drawn tight in anger, but
would not say-that which the eyes
magnified in my mind.

Legions of voices began to whisper my fate
from the back of my mind, through the
synaptic gate-exploding behind my eyes
and filling them with tears.

While emptiness and sorrow wash over my
soul, recent occurrences are taking their
toll-posing the question..what should I do.

I like it, very encouraging to know there are some other Vampires out there like me.

What does the title mean though? Are you playing on the sexual act of the same numeration?
