Nightmares
The nightmare that haunts me
Whether it’s morning or night
Isn’t just a nightmare.
It’s a reminder of my life.
Telling me I can never escape.
Even when I’m sleeping.
I’ll never be good enough.
I killed everyone I loved.
I should leave to protect
Everyone I know.
I know all of this,
Yet how can I?
There are still people
Waiting here for me.
Leaving them would be
A mistake.
So even if my nightmare
Continues on.
I just need to look for
The starlight on the
Darkest of nights.
Then everything
Will truly be okay.
