The sleep is something that no longer comforts me. Even when I find it it doesn't comfort me like it does to most. Instead, it taunts me with fragments of memories. Or are they? Is that what they call a dream? But my imagination is not how Disney portrays it. It is sick and twisted. Awake I lie covered in a cold sweat for I am one who does not dream. Nightmares are what surround me; awake or asleep doesn't matter. Not anymore. And once again, the nightmares steal all the happy, kind, sweet, thoughts and I am left cold, broken, and alone.
