nightmares

Poem I found tucked away from 2011. WOW! Anyway, i'm pretty sure this was one of those dark days... And I have it down as the form of a Tanka 5-7-5-7-7

Nightmares hold me tight

Reminding me of real life

Whispering softly

"This is your life, don’t forget"

Comforting words, spoken true

Wow , it's definitely one of those pieces of writing that make you think and wonder at times, I like it although there are times in life that aren't as well, hard you just have to keep looking to the future and trying to see things on the bright side.

One of the great things about nightmares is that you can wake up. Real life, well, you're kind of stuck with it.
