A Nightmare

I opened my eyes
To an open dark sky.
Slowly I felt ,
The penetrating gaze
Of thousand stars.

I tried to learn ,
where I was.
A look around ,
And fear gripped me hard.
I was in the middle of an old burial ground.
Sepulchres all around,
Each guarded by an unemotional cross.
They seem to be waiting,
For their masters to wake up.

" Will they ".

I tried to stand,
With my shaky legs.
Only to tumble
And fall again.

Far ahead I could see him.
A man with a shovel,
Digging grave in solo.
I crawled then limped.
Finally on my legs ,
I ran to him .
I had questions ,
And he seemed to be ,
The one with answers.

I stand close to him now,
Facing his back.
X'cuse me senor .
" Where am I ?"
" Who did this to me ?"

It seemed to me ,
He cared less for my words.
I pulled his colar ,
For a desperate answer.
In dim moon light ,
I saw his face.

" That was me ".
