Surreal

    My heart is racing, my lungs feel like they're on fire, I'm running in darkness, I'm running with everything i have in my body but i just keep running slower. Tears threaten to escape my eyes as i blink, i hear something after me, the steps are getting louder and louder, i try screaming for help but nothing comes out, just silence. My body turns cold as i feel a grasp on my shoulder, I'm thrown down to the ground, i can feel the bruises beginning to form, the remaining breath in my lungs gets knocked out of me as my body hits hard with the surface beneath me. I can still only see darkness, but now there's a darker shadow looming over my body, the shadow holds a knife, it's glistening and sharp, i can't move, my body is frozen in fear, tears stream down my face as i lay there. The shadow steps closer to me, straddling my body, leaning forward to my ear, my eyes widen in fear as i hear it speak to me.

"hah GO...TO...SLEEP"

The shadow raises the knife up and thrusts it down to my chest, as I'm about to meet my end...I jolt myself awake! Im now in a sitting position, heaving and trying to catch my breath, cold sweat drips from my forehead. I quickly reach for my lamp on my night stand and turn it on. once my room is partially lit, i sit back against my bed frame and take another deep breath. I catch my breath finally and take the glass of water on my night stand to quench my dry throat, i look over at my clock to read the time, 4:30AM. Jeez i haven't had a nightmare like that since i was a little girl, why now? I placed the glass back down and rubbed my eyes to clear the water and sleep that was in them. I must've fallen asleep while watching a documentary, my eyes scan my bed and see my laptop open and my red journal with my pen. typically when i watch documentaries i tend to make my own notes and questions to do my own research on the topic.

    i open my journal to read the notes on what i watched, maybe its the reason behind that awful nightmare.
