Nighttime dreams.
Her mind fights reality.
Imagination challenging what is with what could be.
Nighttime dreams.
Sweat induced, aching.
She wakes and tamps down those dark thoughts.
Nighttime dreams.
She locks the door, but dreams are a universal key
to the compartments of a girl’s mind.
Nighttime Dreams
Fantasy can be freeing;
but what lies behind those locked recesses can terrify.
Nighttime dreams.
