Last night


Last night,
I found myself crying in my sleep.
I woke up and realized
that my nightmare was an impending reality:
a wicked truth I have been hiding from
and would eventually have to face.
Sleep was no longer a respite
from the vicious snares of certainty.
I found myself crying
not because of dreadful thoughts
but because of truth
and life itself.
