Nightmare

I have nightmares all the time. I have to;
Because I reason that if my dreams are not nightmares, of what use are they to me?
–
I have nightmares all the time. I love them!
I want to think of my dreams and shudder.
I want to live my dreams and be terrified of how big they are.
I want to attain my dreams and almost collapse in dreadful wonder.
–
I have nightmares all the time. I call for them.
Before I dream, I watch incredible horror stories
Of people who from nothing became supernovas
Those who went through their own nightmares and came out unscathed
Then I call for those nightmares in my dreams
–
I have nightmares all the time. I pray for them.
For I know the dreams I should have of myself are those God has of me
And when I dare to imagine them as they run in his Big Mighty Mind, I feel terrified and frozen
So I stop imagining these scary dreams and I just pray them to myself
–
I have nightmares all the time. I work towards them.
Because if my dreams don’t scare me, then my brain won’t dare me
So I work my talents so hard, that when I dream, I only dream scary dreams – nightmares.
–
The same way I’d rather not be, than be anything less than what God wants for me,
I’d also rather not dream, than dream anything that doesn’t scare me shitless!
