This nightmare, Its reoccurring, And never ending. Its the kind that jerks you awake, In the middle of the night, From the deepest slumber you have ever felt. Its panic. Its like you were laying there, Not asleep, But dead, And then you're shocked back to life, And your heart starts violently pumping blood, The juices that keep you alive. But then once you're awake, And alive again, You'd expect the nightmare to be over... Right? No. Its not over. It follows you throughout the day, And then enters and takes control again, At night, When you're at your weakest, Most vulnerable point, When you're asleep. This nightmare has a name, Its called life.
