N I G H T M A R E S

sometimes
it is impossible for me to close my eyes
i think of what my life could have been
if you weren't in it.
i think of what i could be
if i just wasn't me.
i try not to let myself think too much
but sometimes the nightmares control me
they take my sanity and distort it
almost causing it to entirely fade away into nothing.
when you told me to deal with it
and that i would be okay
i realized that i didn't need you to stay.
but still, to this day
sometimes, the nightmares get a grasp on me,
and take away my sleep
and my eyes
remain open.
