The air around me lurks I can feel the heaviness of the air. The sounds seem to scream in their silence, I only hear. Your hands reach for my throat in the darkness I cannot breath( I swoon)gasping for my breath. Please let me live! But you clutch my throat even more looking at me like a wild animal your eyes blood red. You say to me just give me your soul and for you I'll let you breath once more. I seem to go deep into the crevices of of my soul wandering if I can give what I thought I had not. Will I need to have my soul or can I exist with just this shell? He whispers again with his raspy voice Give me your soul! There and then I realize that I must wake from this nightmare I gasp, I scream, I scream Then I awake and breath like I never have before. ( once you've lost something you thought you never had before but realize you had it all along, you begin to realize Sometimes we overlook the good things in life and look for only the dispair. I guess it's just a human characteristic we all share. |

Great Job here the nightmare seems so true you are right but I think sometimes despair is forced upon us As we try to fight for happiness without feeling despair and lonliness we couldnt feel happiness and joy and look at all the beautiful work that comes from some despair. I do not thrive on despair but for some like me it is an illness that we must waddle through. Great job keep it up Blue |

Hi blue, I to wallow sometimes in my dispair always reaching,climbing my way out. But there are moments that I cave into a gloom and feel consumed. |

Such an intriguing picture you paint hon!! I was mesmerised by the dream and your words of wisdom at the end, a different format that I really enjoyed.. Great stuff  *Our deeds travel with us from afar, and what we have been makes us what we are..* Isis ~ Sovereign of the Spirit |

"I gasp, I scream, I scream then I awake and breathe like I never have before." Very nice writing...James |

Hello Rosebud! There is no one who loves pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it, simply because it is pain. - Cicero, de Finibus I really hope that this guy is right but I tend to think that you are. I really liked this one. >Will I need to have my soul >or can I exist with just this shell? wow! |

thx Jmlee and Bjorn, sometimes are dreams seem very real don't they? I enjoyed writing this myself. It does put a sense of reality in our dreams. So often I wonder where my dreams come from. Sometimes I think man I should have had that cake before I went to sleep. lol |
