This is a story I have been working on so I hope you can lease tell me what I should do better.

I wake up, fingers numb, body covered in sweat. Short, ragged breaths escape my mouth. I know what's happening, it happens every night. I close my eyes, waiting for her to reach for my heart like every night. But it doesn't happen, like every night. I open my eyes slowly and there she is, sitting at my feet like every night. I can't stop myself, I have to blink. She is now at my knees, eyes fixated on my face, those unblinking eyes that haunt me. I know what I need to do. I claw at my eyes, ripping them out with renewed force as I feel her cold, sharp claws dig into my skin and rip my heart out. I wake up, fingers numb, body covered in sweat. Short, ragged breaths escape my mouth.
