I had a nightmare last night
He was in it
Pinning me down and I couldn't say anything to stop what came next
I only looked away and tears rolled down my cheeks
Hot and salty
Shame filled me and I wasn't strong enough to move away
When I awoke my stomach had knots and I felt like I wanted to vomit
I swallowed hard thankful that my phone had rang to wake me up
I silently thanked God for friends
It was as if the world knew I was helpless and saved me from a nightmare that felt all to real
