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
