The Contrast of Dreams and Nightmares

Sometimes we have dreams and sometimes we have nightmares. Our dreams can sometimes come in the form of nightmares and vise-versa. To an extent we cannot escape from. We fall into the traps that we cannot pursue our ambitions and dreams. However, this conflict is chased away by serenity. However, another conflict arises in an abundance of rage. We acknowledge the haters, but only exist because we acknowledge them. There is a gap between these dreams and nightmares. They can be easily confused. Nightmares we can awaken from scared and shaken. Whatever was scaring us, does not exist in the real world. Our dreams bring us comfort, especially from the real world. However, we cannot escape the real world.

The real world can be a dream sometimes and a nightmare. People with mental illnesses come in varying degrees. It can start from glitches in emotion to down right schizophrenia. That is a complete nightmare. There are so many medications that can mask the symptoms; some are self-inflicted. There is really no fix. Addictions become entangled between a dream and a nightmare. It becomes trapped in a web and fall into awaking nightmare. We never forget who we are though. Self-medication is believed to be the vices of addiction. It can have you bury your heads in the deep sand or live life in a haze. Now, everyone can play the victim. The victim syndrome; it is mighty clever I might add. The time spent complaining and crying we don’t even realize it. There is an onset of different levels.  You can be the manipulator of the actual victim that you can never get past. Our lives has spun in circles and stalled out.


Sometimes we need to allow our inner dreamer to take flight, or we will tumble down into a nightmare. However, are you sure we live in the land of the free? With these problems we live in a waking nightmare that affects some and damage others. Some just want to fall back into a dream and never wake up to reality of what humanity has become.
