"Facing Nightmares" is a poem that shows how we find superhuman strength to defeat unexpected battles that come into our lives.

————

It's strange

how unexpected nightmares 

change our lives.

It’s like a ghost

hiding with no reflection 

silently creeping into our world

leaving us amidst chaos.

One moment 

everything is fine

the next

we’re facing Goliath.

Discovering superhuman strength 

from a place

we’ve never felt before 

as we tear down roadblocks

until victory comes to light.
