Afraid to go to sleep, because of her dream last night,
she tries to stay awake, to avoid having it tonight.
She can't bare to see that horrific nightmare again;
she has to sleep sometime, if not now, then when?
She dreamed about you, the boy she adores,
you gave your heart away, but hers is still yours.
In her mind, the break up never even happened,
she loved you so much, and refused to see it end.
All she can do is think about how you weren't there,
and how the whole time you were having a love affair.
Give her a while, she'll slowly drift back to reality,
or at least we all hope she will ... eventually.

i love the title. reading that instantly intrigued me lol. i love the concepts behind the words here; the fear of falling asleep, not wanting to face certain things, fear of reality....
i really like the way you ended it, and how it just kind of fades off into the distance, kind of like falling asleep... everyones got their own nightmares they never want to face, and i like how this poem put that effectively into words.
thanks for entering!

I like it, I really like it. I've had nightmares like that, I mean, the ones where you're scared to sleep afterwards so you don't sleep and stuff, or at least, do your best not to sleep, but you usually end up collapsing sometime later in exhaustion someplace. And as far as having nightmares of people you really care/cared about betraying you and stuff, I've had plenty, most of them really bad. lol So I don't sleep half the time anymore. But I'm glad it didn't happen to you. :}
lol You're good, keep writing. :} lol I mean, as long as you wanna and stuff. ^^' :} -
well, I'm glad it didnt happen to you, cos it seems love is one topic, that no matter how positive one can feel, the dreams think otherwise, nicely written.
