If Only People Knew

In this night hour Dreadful fears looming Around the corner of darkness The thieves of sleep party In the silent corridors of my mind Those images ready to purge The past is gone, but retained - It can’t be stopped - Just as time, can’t be either - If only people knew - Heidi Sands 6/15/18

If only there was a switch. But then we'd lose the magic of our dreams. :) <3
