Dream Pillow

 

Lumpy and wrinkled

fear of demons in nightmares

causes restless sleep

 

maybe they will stop

and give me one night of rest

I need to have hope

 

how unbearable

having demons linger in

am I in too deep?

 

hoping and dreaming

that someday I will be free

is it possible?

 

Continuous fear

Of the inevitable

Compresses my dreams

 

Though I can’t see it

I know it’s out there somewhere

Because I can feel

 

The light is out there

Waiting for me to find it

And bring me back home

 

Sure I am still scared

But I will still go to bed

Because I have hope

 

I have hope today

And tomorrow I will too

That’s all one needs

 

To keep faith in life

Can be difficult with time

Become consuming

 

But I see the light

Now I just have to get there

And this too shall pass

  1. How often I say those same words to myself: This too shall pass. Reminds me of a quote I saw recently (on Pinterest, the source of most of my philosophy these days): So far my record for making it out alive through tough times is 100%.
