Only a Dream
Location
I dreamed that you were there.
Beside me.
Comforting me.
As I screamed out in fear.
Twisting, turning, thrashing.
Nightmares filling my head.
Images.
That I can't erase.
From my mind.
But then I woke up.
Those nightmares still swimming
around.
I reached for you.
Arms outstretched.
Fingers searching.
And you weren't there.
Because it was only a dream.
