Waking in a cold sweat thinking that I’m awake. The phone screen glows in the dark in the middle of the night. An mother coming across the bed choking me for the phone going off. I can’t stop her and my ability to scream for help doesn’t help. I manage to get mother off of me, but she ends up biting my hand and not letting it go. I turn to Cheryl to try and wake her, but she is sound a sleep. Once I manage to get her to wake up, she doesn’t believe me when I tell her about mother coming across the bed at me. But, I quickly realize I’m still asleep and not awake.

The pain won’t stop, the pain won’t calm down and lessen. It’s something that is continuing and no matter how much I try not to think about it or how much I just try to relax, it doesn’t disappear. at this point, I think my mother is finally getting her wish on me dropping dead and praying for my death.

With my body revolting against me and parent angry with my choices. I don’t know which way to go or where to go. I just know that I’ve got to make my own way and do what I have to do... 

As I lay asleep in my bed. Dreaming sweet dreams of night. The wind is in my face as I’m falling forever. becoming a slave to my dreams.  Where I don’t have to worry about a single thing. Where I have only to fall and fall I do...

For in this moment in time, I shall fall and the fears and dreams, I will dream will collide. For while I sleep, a sleep that is intended to last a lifetime. The people that I care about live their lives and not missing me or so I think. An in my subliminal thoughts, thoughts of wondering if they will realize that something is missing. But the notion of knowing they wont know what until the date of my death draws near. Tugging at the backs of their minds and driving them ever so time-consumingly mad...

Lost within the dark,

Darkness is growing near,

We have spent the night dancing.

Seeing your face in the shadows,

feeling the heat of your gaze,

Hot and so full of hunger...

Lost on side trails,

Trying to run all in time,

While lingering shadows shield you now...

Knowing what surrounds you for the time being,

Knowing no other way out,

Until it’s been understood,

That understanding them,

Is to become them,

And I can feel you,

All night,

In ghostly times like these,

There is no other way out.....

In the beginning, learning what you are and the dangers of this are overwhelming. You think it’s a game. Like you are a kick butt awesome superhero. It is funny to think of all the possibilities, until the realization settles in. Until you realize that you need to stay hidden, secret, and safe from the world. Safe from those who will try and
