Nightmares

I have nightmares that I can't wake up from

They leave me sobbing, hyperventilating, feeling numb

Sometimes you're in them, other times not

But you're never not there because I forgot

I think, at times, it might be easier if I could forget

If I could pretend that you were someone that I never met

But I can't do that.

So I just try to think about good things

And I try to believe that you're somewhere good

And even though I'm living in this nightmare that I can't wake up from

God, I really wish I could
