I dream at night,
I wake in a dither,
It almost feel like it was real.
I can feel the pain,
of fighting you off.
My scratching, and screaming.
I go to the bathroom,
to throw cold water on my face,
I am bleeding.
In my own fears of you,
Even in my dreams,
you win.
I have scratched my own face
thinking it was you.
Will you ever stop haunting me?

Very powerful poem Staci. I can sense the struggle going on to be free of this person. I like the short lines which get right to the point and I love the ending which really delivers a punch.
One comment on the third line. I think you want to say 'feels' instead of 'feel'.
Great poem! -
