I had a dream I was choking,
eyes watering,
coughing with no relief.
This dream in particular was long
while some of the best dreams are short.

Still, I woke up with no cold sweat,
with eyes wide open,
taking a deep breath,
and looking beyond the curtains,
my eyes following the sun.
I could breathe,
my heart beating.
I was still slighty afraid,
but less than I was before sleeping
Dreams could be full of lessons
if only could I could believe.
I know I must trust
that I’ve been given a second chance.
Given a second chance to fly or fall.
At least I could say I’m trying
and somehow surviving through it all.
