Sometimes you have wonderful dreams. They seem so real, so simple they could be believed. It is a wish you want more than anything else to come true. Then you wake up, clinging to that rapidly dying hope that maybe it really did happen. But within seconds you realize that it was just a dream and disappointment takes over. Sometimes while you dream you mentally think 'this is too good to be true' and you try to convince yourself it is.

Other times, you have nightmares and are happy to be awake. Having to remind yourself that that awful feeling you woke up with was only a bad dream and didn't take place. Sometimes the bad feeling can linger with you all day long. Other lucky members of society, may see it as a great new outlook on life.

But sometimes, you do stupid things without the excuse of alcohol or other drugs. Just out of pure desire. Then you wish you were having a nightmare and that you could wake up from when really, it was you being an idiot. Nothing to take comfort in at all knowing that it was all your doing. The nightmare of reality is far worse than the one you sleep with.
