Rona Musings Sleep

“Sleep is not on good terms with broken hearts. It will have nothing to do with them.”

― Christopher Pike

Sleep honored me with its presence last night.

10:50pm –5:50am

two nights in a row

I slept the sleep of the dead.

Not long enough to be a trend

but definitely no longer

counting on one hand

the nights more than four hours asleep

in the last 14 months.

Today I woke up to a lucid dream

but it wasn’t a nightmare.

I would share it here,

but it was so intense that it may

be offensive to some…

“Sometimes I wish I had not woken up from a beautiful dream, and continued dreaming within sleep upon sleep until I become a dream itself. Because sometimes waking up is more frightening than a nightmare.”

― Danny Castillones Sillada

At least the dream didn’t come at 3am… my Love let me sleep for awhile.

“Our rest is formed by our waking life and our waking life is formed by our sorrows.”
― Alice Hoffman, The Dovekeepers

Let’s hope for the start of a trend…

of sleep.
