Nightmares

Post by breezy1170 »

I read this and just wanted to share.
This is my nightmare every night. I wake..... Sweaty and screaming foolish and alone. And so I continue on..... Living each day feeling his sweat.... And hearing his heavy breath in the back of my mind every time silence creeps up on me. Later I watch the sun, so naive crawl under the horizon..... And I get restless as dusk approaches for I know that when my head hits that pillow..... The fight begins... And he always wins in the end. Carrying my innocence off holding it up to the moonlight kicking and screaming until..... Finally..... He leaves it and walks away while it is raw and naked shaking on the cold ground..... Until... A new dawn emerges
