Nightmares

Sleepy.
Tired.


My head hurts.
My heart too.
I could use a good night's rest.


But the only thing I get are nightmares.
Nightmares and sleepless nights.
And in the day the nightmares continue.


Glares full of hate and disgust.
Whispers full of laughter and scorn.
I shrink only further while the day passes.


I pray for good nights,
a sleep without nightmares,
a life without nightmares.


Sleep full of nightmares continues.
My life full of nightmares continues.


Is there someone to make it stop?

Anyone?
