I dug my own grave

I always have dreams almost every night (falling or jumping from high places, losing all my teeth,  dreaming of being late at school, etc) but this dream is different. It's like I’m aware I’m dreaming but there’s nothing I can do to wake up or to make it stop. I was 15 or 16 at the time. I was in a boarding house near my school and I have 4 roommates. The 4 of us share the same room, the room has 2 bunk beds. We have our own restroom and a kitchen. For 4 - 5 days I keep on dreaming of my college Professor whom I dislike. He is so bossy and loves to order us around to do things that are not school related. In my dream, he’s shouting at me and ordering me to carry different things. On the first night, I was carrying a lot of books. Next night I was carrying garden tools like a shovel, watering can, gloves, and plant seeds. This continued for 2 - 3 nights and every time I woke up my arms hurt and they were shaking as if I carried heavy stuff. I am so confused why am I dreaming of him!

I am me!(Short Poem)

I am not a toy to play with
I am not a floor to step on
I am not a trash to put to waste

I am a human being that feels
I am a girl that's hurting 
I am a sister who is giving

I am not a game to win
I am not a trophy to exhibit 
Instead, I am a person to be loved and cherish.

I am not a thing that needs to be fix
I am a person that needs to be understood
I am not an object to project
I am a person that needs protection.

I am not a mistake that needs to be corrected 
I am a nobody that wants to be somebody
I am not a dream - don't make me fill your reverie
because I am real I am imperfect
and I am me.
