All Comments on 'Nightmare'

stanza got a little rough, losing the rhythm. When you moved into the three line stanzas I felt the flow improve. You might work this one reading it out loud. Any areas that are tough to read or that don't flow off your tongue need your attention.

"She awakens to see

it was all a dream

that he's still here.

Still loving

Still caring

Still the same.

Eyes filled with love,

they look upon her face,

they see into her heart."

Seems to work well, but...

"Words softly spoken

don't mean a thing

because they fall upon deaf ears."

The last line here needs some trimming, perhaps simply say... "they fall on deaf ears."
