A Nightmare Or A Dream Poem by Amanda Austin

I wake up feeling drained and restless
I lay there feeling angry yet hopeful
I wonder to myself if I enjoy it or not
I ask myself if it's worth it or not
It hurts me and scares me
It makes me smile bigger and happier
It upsets me and causes anger
It makes me feel loved and important
So I'm stuck wondering to myself if it is a nightmare or a dream
