Midnight whispers haunt my dreams.

with fractured hints of nightmare screams,

their sibilants as yet unclear,

still stimulate uneasy fear

and interrupt my sleep regimes.

 

Some nights can run to such extremes

that demons come in swarming streams,

and in those scenes I only hear

midnight whispers.

 

My consciousness by daytime deems

that all these horror-stricken themes

merge from the darkness to appear

and manifest their presence here,

inflicting their unworldly screams

in midnight whispers.
