[hometext] => my roommate in college kept waking me up....i think maybe that is what this is for.
[bodytext] => I want to sleep but I cannot, the blinding light is piercing my lids. Keeping me from my blissful dreams of frolicking in the fields, only to be crushed by the weight of the sun; keeping me down, holding me from my work as a dream weaver. When the light is finally overcome by the darkness I can drift to sleep. But this sleep is not restful, filled with my greatest fears, overwhelming me, I cannot breath. I am suffocated by my nightmare, I cannot wake; I stay, feeling murderous hands on my throat, choking me. I wake up, coughing, sweating, wondering. Was what I experienced reality? I become calmed, once again swept into a sleep so frightening I awake lurching out at my attacker. To find that the sand-man has once again mystified me with his fantasies. I am afraid, I cannot sleep again. I choose to roam, walking as if in a trance, not seeing, yet understanding so much more. I come to a place unfamiliar, there is no exit, I am trapped. The walls are white, anxious, I am overwhelmed by pain. I cannot go on, I fall, going into a state of unconscious, I am gone. As I wake, I am presented with the image of a man. I cannot make out his face, I am blinded, the light so strong. I am out again, I feel nothing, know nothing, just exist. I am alone, it is dark, I am lost. Yet this place is familiar, I recognize the place I am in, it is my own. It seems that this was all an illusion, a trick of the mind. I am terribly confused, tired, I can finally rest.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
