Left Out In The Rain

I'm sort of an insomniac. Now you’re probably saying to yourself, sort of? It’s either you are or aren’t. Well, for many years I suffered with insomnia, and just recently I started to get maybe 2 to 4 hours of sleep a night, if I’m lucky. I don’t know if it’s lucky though. When I do fall asleep I have nightmares. I haven’t had one good dream in years. It’s probably about 7 ½ years. Last night, I had a dream of my 9 year old nephew and this guy I dated over 10 years ago for like a month who was 6 years older than me. I was in this house, and it must have been summer time because I think it was a beach house. Everything was white from the wooden floors to the curtains to the couch. The strange thing was this guy was like 18 in my dream; I didn’t even know him at 18. He was sitting on the couch and my nephew came over to me upset. I had asked him what was wrong and he sobbed while telling me his message.

“No one pays attention to me; I’m left out in the rain.”

There’s more to the dream that went bad, but I don’t remember it and I think its better off that way.
