Night Time in My Mind

Yet another thing for today. I just like putting out stories, and it is my way of apologizing for my hiatus.

Sometimes, at night, I think of many things before I drift off into the land of sleep. Life, love, happiness, music, what I plan to do. But most of all, I think of her. The way she lights up my life more than anything in the world, and how no matter what she makes me happy. I have many fantasies about what life will be like without her, and what would happen if I married her, and many other things. I think of ways not to lose her, and I think of ways that I could make her happy.

Then, after I finish that, I begin a sort of waking dream, where I can be anything I want. Sometimes, I'm the hero of a grand adventure, off to save the beautiful, almost ethereal maiden locked away in her tower by an evil sorcerer. Other times, I'm a man like John McClane, saving my country more than once from the bad guy. And still others, I dream about what my life will be in the future. These are the most beautiful dreams. I see her in them, and we are together and happy. I see a beautiful little girl with us, and I think I can guess who she is. And sometimes I see a quiet house, with myself, and her, and that beautiful little girl, and we are all roughhousing and laughing and happy. 

But then there are the darker dreams, where I'm stuck in a hellish war, or I am dying, over and over until I wake up. I like to avoid remembering those. Those dreams that I am in mortal terror, but no matter what, I can't scream. And that I why I don't like sleeping, not just because life is more beautiful than sleep when you are madly in love, but also because those dreams happen more often.

But I don't mind the insomnia, in fact, I quite like it. It gives me much more time in the day to write and do other things I love. Like sit and talk about all the nice dreams with the woman in them, and smile and laugh, and do what I saw in those dreams and strive to do.

Author's Note

This is one of those random prose stories I'll do on occasion, ignore it if it doesn't make any sense.
