Body and Soul

by Danielle E. Kirchner {Cancer} - Not entered

She woke up with
The nightmares again.
She laid there,
In a pool of sweat.
Her heart was pounding.
She knew she wouldn't go back to sleep
For the rest of the night.
What was the use of trying?
They would only come again and 
Haunt her.
The night she dreamed of
Would stay with her
Body and soul...
Forever.

Reason for writing:

    I was having really scary nightmares.  Writing this down 
was my way of exorcising the bad memories that kept coming 
up in these dreams.
