The Nightmare Hero (1 rating) by David Strontium
When you sleep in twilight, you dream through the night, of nightmare villains, that give you fright.
You have never had a hero, for which to implore, to fight for you, against the ravaging hordes.
I am your titan, I am the champion, to clear your obstructions. I am your warrior, I am the legend of your nightmares destructions.
For I am the savior, I am the fighter, I am the warrior, for our unending fears. I am the helper, I am the healer, I am the queler, to your unending tears.
I have always fought monsters from front and behind, but I have never fought demons, in one's young mind.
I am the blade of your vengeance, the will of your courage, the bringer of silence, in your dreams to nourish. The freer of blame, in your minds prison, the destroyer of shame, to aleave all tension.
You will be warm, throughout the cold night, away from the swarm, that gives you such fright to be free, when the nightmares come, to fly away when all evil is undone, to have all that is bad, die as it runs.
Dream of me, for I will be there to fight your demons, to keep them away, from your sweet dreamings, away from chaos, as if you were swimming, swimming into joy, as if you were sleeping.
I am the silent whisper, to quell all your fears, I am the nightmare hero, to wash away your tears.
I am the righteous warrior to make all evil weep, I am the nightmare hero, to guard your mind as you sleep.
I am the calm ocean to make all madness die, I am the nightmare hero, to watch you as you fly.
I am the keeper of your swell dreams, to keep you away from hellish fiends.
I am the sweeper of unwelcome minds, to keep you away from unwelcome rhymes.
I am the reverser of all that is bad, to keep away all dreams that come out sad, to keep away all fiends that drive you mad, by any means I will make you glad.
No one can see me in reality's field, but in here, in the realm of fiction, I am real, to keep you concealed, from all that is evil, to shut out the darkness that wants to cloud your sky, to shut out the voices that make you cry, to shut out the demons that wish to pry, to shut out the rhymes that make you sigh, I am the nightmare hero in your eye, to keep you always in fly, to always make you soar high, away from all demons that cloud your mind, to the stars to say bye, soar high fly into the sky, away from all that makes you shy, into the night, forever in flight, out of sight, from all fright.
