TESE AWFUL DREAMS

SOME ONE WAS SITTING ON A ROCKING CHAIR
THE CHAIR WAS ROCKING
THE PERSON SITTING THERE WAS A MAN
I THINK?
WHOEVER WAS SITTING TERE WAS QUITE PLEASANT FOR A CHANGE

Especially for a man if the person sitting on the rocking chair was a man
To be pleasant especially in these awful dreams is a novelty
The rocking chair was dark brown, almost chocolate color with black edges
It looked very pricey

On the other side of the rocking chair was another set of small coffee tables and another comfortable chair
Covered with light green and beige stripes
Very neat and clean
Very neat
On the other side of the coffee table was a single bed
There was a person lying down on that bed
The person was a woman
I think

The man on the rocking chair was older
Or looked older
And the woman on the bed was younger
Looked younger

Maybe the woman on the bed was the daughter of the man on the rocking chair
Maybe?
They were both relaxed
Very relaxed
Seemed comfortable within their skins
I think they had money
And they were peacefully happy
Or at least content

Then I don't remember the rest
Maybe some violence was supposed to come
But I didn't want it
THIS WAS THE LEAST AWFUL DREM
THE LEAST AWFUL DREAMS IN DAYS
SO I DECIDED TO WAKE UP
WOKE UP BEFORE ANY DANGER TO THOSE HAPPY PEOPLE COULD OCCUR
SOMEHOW THEY GAVE ME A NIGHT OF RELIEF
MY FEAR OF AWFULNESS IS SO IMMENSE
THAT, THAT FEAR WOKE ME UP
I WASN'T SWEATING OR ANYTHING
MY HEART WASN'T BEATING FAST

Then I couldn't sleep
Couldn't sleep the whole night
Thinking
Who were those two people who were so happy?
Happy, content, relaxing with a smile
I couldn't sleep
Not because of the fear
But with the wonderment
That peace can be achieved
The contentment can be had
The fondness of comfort can be found

But how?
But how?
But how?

I kept asking
And couldn't sleep the whole night seeking that
feel of achievent of content.
