Nightmare
I jump.
I’m falling into nothingness.
BAM!
I awaken to myself on the hard carpet disguising cold concrete.
I jolt, sweat eeks down my pores as I attempt to calm down.
I don’t calm down.
The kiss of a mother hasn’t yet come, Will never come.
I cry the pain away softly.
I’m drifting, drifting.
Drifting from reality.
Fearing the nightmare might come again
When I wake.
