Nightmares

I pulled my hood up
Covering my face
Making myself unrecognizable
I looked at the ground
Studied every part of the road
Never once did I look up
It was forbidden for me to
Ever since you left
I stopped looking at the sky
I stopped dreaming about goals that reached the stars
Instead
Now I look at the ground
No dream crosses my mind
Thoughts cloud my head
Thoughts about you
Nothing but the pain you caused
Because of you
I don't dream any more
I don't have goals
I only have nightmares
Never ending nightmares about the day I lost you
No longer is sleep my sanctuary
My safe haven away from this painful world
For that every time I sleep
I am reminded of how painful it was to lose you
