contrast between nightmares and her touch

by Reggie - Leo

Saturating tears run down my cheek.
Saturday night seems so lonely this week.
I smash a tad pole in my hand,
and make a wish to leave god's plan.
the nightmares we have all become true.
evident lies corrupt the insides.

last night I laid beside the fire of a funeral pyre.
gazing sky ward I felt the angels cringe with disgust.
I have been dreaming of of bodies laid in a pile,
with swastikas flying above the mass graves.
What could have caused them to be insane?
As I lay down and cry,I hold my best friend,
and she protects me from all my pain.
I hold tight to my wife and as I sob out my story,
she reminds me it was a dream and not reality.

I sigh with relief and hold her tighter.
and fall back asleep with my spirits much lighter.

Reason for writing:

    My wife.My dislike for the irrational hate in this world.
and my fascination with dreams.
