Describe the last nightmare you remember having? What do you think it meant?

——

Nightmare 

Noun

\’ nīt – mer \

a dream that frightens a sleeping person. 

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!
