Dreams
are soothing. We can fly to the highest mountain,
or explore the deepest
sea.
Dreams are relaxing. We can watch the sun set as we stroll along a
tropical beach.
Dreams are refreshing.
We can be wherever the cool breezes blow gently each
evening.
Dreams are romantic,
we can be Romeo...or Juliet, we can be Adam...or Eve
But...dreams are just dreams,
fantasies, escape, not real and not likely to come true.
Nightmares are...tragedies from yesterdays, reflections
from earlier
years.
Nightmares are...broken hearts, unfulfilled desires,
lost friends.
Nightmares are...shadows in the dark, fear from within,
shudders when the wind blows cold.
Nightmares are...waking up in a sweat, filled with a terror so real
you can taste it.
Nightmares are...Death; a childhood pet, a high-school
friend, an aunt, parents...and someday, You.
Dreams are...fleeting, will-o-the-wisp clouds drifting
by.
Nightmares are real.
