"It's just a dream" (I felt that hint)
Send me “It’s just a dream.” to comfort my muse from having a nightmare.
Watery hues shifted towards the calming, reassurance. Left scared- traumatized- by visuals that haunted her for several years.
Innocent children turning to missing children....
New reports on the missing found dead.
Empty eye sockets, mutilated limbs, blood...
Screaming children- torture.
Poor lost souls....hunted and destroyed by a force that should have protected the herd. The future of humanity. One by one fallen.
life shattered instantly.
Guilt conjuring up into stress induced night terrors.
It began to take it’s toll....
Especially at her weakest hour.
When life seems to be against her.
Deciding to start her day at four am....
With those images fresh in her mind, it was near impossible to carry on with slumber. Madness stirred-- thinking coherently was not an available option.
Refusing to cast her burden on another, she lied through her teeth and forced a gentle smile. Behind heartbroken, tired, eyes....she couldn’t put stress on them. They were all she had--- she cared too much to.
It wouldn’t be fair.........
“ I....I know now that I am awake.
It’s hard to get used to them.
But I’ll be okay. I’ll be okay.
