Day 79 of The 100 Day Poetry Project
Do you ever have nightmares? If you are a trauma survivor, sleeping is hard. It's hard to fall asleep, stay asleep and the night includes nightmares. I had a nightmare every night for probably 40 years. I don't have them every night anymore but I had one last night and it's unsettling. They are hard to process and sometimes I don't want to fall back asleep for the fear of going right back into the nightmare again. I'm perpetually tired because of it.
I wish everyone sweet dreams instead of nightmares.
