Nightmares
I have nightmares, is that a surprise?
The time is coming for the new bright Ark
What one might love another one might hide
My husband drags me out so we can fly
To where he chooses,I have made no mark
I have nightmares, oh what a big surprise
I resist, I fear more UTIs
I’m unwell but he is in the dark
Where one might live another one might die
Some fiend attacks us, danger is no lie
I cannot fight, my weapons are too sparse
I have nightmares, is that a surprise?
Another night, it’s insects dark, malign
Then my husband leaves me ,won’t converse
What one might show another one might hide
Is my life a list of times adverse?
Of sleeping and of waking, which is worse?
I have nightmares, is that a surprise?
Where one might laugh another one might cry
