OctPoWriMo 2018: Day 15: If Hope Were an Umbrella


If hope were an umbrella
It would be full of holes
An unreliable shield
Allowing all manner of projectiles through
A farce offering the illusion of shelter
But in reality, only granting cover in fair weather
Affording no protection when storms arise

Miles to Go Before I Sleep

Photo found here.

I have to get to a place where I know he can’t invade my dreams.
He came to me promising his love.
He brought me only madness.
I gave him everything, and he took it all.
Physically speaking, I can get away from him anywhere.
He doesn’t know me in life.
He doesn’t know where I live.
But every time I sleep, he comes to me.
Liar, liar, dirty, filthy liar.
He destroyed my ability to find love in life, because for the past twenty-seven years, I have loved only him.
If I go to another plane, to another dimension, I will have the upper hand at last.
The pills will facilitate my journey.
With my body out of the way, no more can he disturb my rest.
Each pill represents a mile.
I still have a few miles to go before I sleep.
Miles to go before I sleep.

~Faye~
