Get Up

A Poem by SquinklaPsyOps



When I go to sleep,

I forget that I am alive,

unless I have a nightmare,

then I know I have to wake up,

and battle another day.

This is a beautiful little poem. You indeed conveyed a lot of meaning in a short forum. When I was a child I knew some hippies in Albuquerque. They taught me how to enter, control, and remember dreams. It is actually a very simple formula. If you want to remember, chant a mantra at night. IE "I will remember my dreams" If you have nightmares that are just to much... " I will control my dreams... or I will enter my dream and take control." Another trick once you begin remembering, is to keep a dream log. Once you do this on a regular basis, you will remember more and more. A lot of my writings come from dreams. Wolf ,'', ^@@^ ,'',

Dreams can be a message from the subconscious to the conscious. Or, they can mean nothing at all..... read more
sleep is often an escape.....a place where the never-ending evil of this world cease, temporarily....

unless, like you say, we are tormented by nightmares.....then it may be a double whammy...

A lot of life in these few lines....

A bit of synchronicity here, considering what we were talking about. I suppose the butterfly does not do battle. I hope you thoroughly enjoy your day:)

I see you're still capitalizing the words of your first sentence again. (see review response below this comment)

Your tells are like ticks.

Yes the poem is about an entity that stalks sleeping Angels and provokes them nightmares.
yes, sleep is so peaceful...but it is not eternal when nightmares wake us...

we know we are still here, and there is still another day to face...

but battling, and feeling the pain...yes, we "bleed just to know we're alive" as that song said.
