[poem] In my dreams I am everything

 Sleep disturbance   Unrefreshed sleep:e.g. awaken feeling exhausted regardless of duration of sleep, day‐time sleepiness -Myalgic Encephalomyelitis International Consensus Criteria

In my dreams I fly. In my dreams school takes place at the top of an endless staircase. In my dreams I meet a girl and we kiss under the stars. We have no need of words. In my dreams I swim laps of a pool as the water slowly rises. In my dreams I fail to teleport. I cannot get the hang of shifting my surroundings around me so I run instead. In my dreams I am in the middle of a busy crowd of strangers and I remember I am sick. I remember I need rest. In my dreams I do not rest.
