fear grips me
eyes squeezed shut
as flashes fill my mind
flashes of the lies you told me
of the things you said
I am captive
I want to run
Get away
From all the lies
From the poison
You spread
This is my reality
At this very moment

Did you have any dreams last night? If so what were they about?
A weight
Lies heavy
On my chest
As I lie here
Wide awake
So scared
Bad dreams
Leave me feeling
So much fear
The intensity
Threatens to overtake me
I rise from my bed
Walk to the kitchen
and make a coffee
And decide to stay up
As I am wide awake now anyway
Hopeful the fear
Will leave me soon
I pat nitro
My sweet boy
Who knows I need him
So much right now
Sip on the coffee
And breathe deeply
Its a new day

I’m a day late but…
😀
Shweta’s Prompt for Week #37 (May 9, 2020 May 15, 2020) is
Dreams.
My dreams are terrifying of late
I’m dozing
But unable to fall
into a deep sleep
nightmares
keeping me up
i flinch
crash and burn
am now wide awake
fear bubbles up
anxiety too
i sit here
wipe away tears
and wonder
will this ever end?
bleary eyed
slowly I sit up
Where am I?
I shake the sleep out of my eyes
Stretch and yawn
Oh my?
How long have I been asleep?
Such a peaceful sleep I’ve had
Dreaming about Nitro
amongst other things
Early morn
I Lie here
Listen to birds sing
Listen to the radio
Its comforting
Soothes my fears away
Of which
There are many
Fall into a nice slumber
then suddenly
Awakened by phone ringing
A friend calls to chat
And after that
I get up
And brew the coffee
