The Rape of the Little Child

I always want to describe my nightmares as ''the most horrific one yet'', but then I realise I can't, because they are all as horrific as another, and like I have mentioned in some of my other posts, I find it difficult to write about them here as I feel like I am re-living the trauma, a trauma I feel like I have actually been through, even though it was just in my sleep.

In this particular dream, I was in a parking lot sitting on the side of the road eating an ice-cream.  A big SUV was parked in front of me and the owner of the vehicle came back to it and opened the back seat and put a young girl, aged about two, into a rear-facing car seat.  He strapped her in and then an evil grin spread across his face as he took a large stick and raped the young child with it.  For some reason I couldn't move from where I was sitting, I couldn't hide or look away, I just had to sit there and watch this horrific scene occur.  I think this dream went on for at least an hour.

The next morning when I went to work and saw the manager who works for me I broke down in tears, I was just so exhausted from the experience of what I had seen the night before.  One would think that with this happening on a regular basis, I would get used to it.  That couldn't be further from the truth.  It just gets worse and worse as the terrors that I have seen just get more and more.
