Dark Grey Water

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends,

This is a dream I had some time ago...and I'd like to post it here

now.

I am with many other people, in a high round building, a bit like a

tower, which has many levels, and is built of stone bricks of a

reddish colour. I look out of the windows, and I see all around that

there are several other separate similar buildings, all busy with

people. While looking out of the windows, I see in the distance a

huge wall of very dark grey water rising; I feel cold with fear. I

turn and look at the people in the building, some are undisturbed

and unaware of the approaching water, and some are aware and

frantically gathering up their possessions, and trying to run away,

out of the building. Again I look out of the window, and I see that

waves are forming on the wall of water, the foam at the tips is deep

black. There is not much time left, the water is approaching, and I

see that the towers in its path are being completely engulfed.

I see a small girl close to me, and I feel I have to try to hold on

to her, and reassure her that she should not be afraid. At this

moment I feel sad for all the children and that they are all so

afraid. I take her hand, and we try to leave the tower; I am worried

that if we get caught by the water in the building, we will be

crushed against all the structures, and will not be able to reach

the surface of the water unharmed.

Somehow we stay ahead of the path of the water, and we manage to

stay together despite the many other people. We get out of the

tower, I'm holding onto her tightly, and we reach a narrow winding

road. On each side of this road are small separate cottages, and no

more high buildings. I look back and see that the water is really

close now, and the towers have been crushed and destroyed. I'm

holding tightly onto the small girl, and I know that the water will

reach us any second, there is no place to run to anymore. I no

longer feel fear though; rather I feel peace, as I know that we will

rise safely straight to the surface of the water. I feel awed that

everything will be completely submerged under a tremendous weight of

water, and gone forever.

I woke from this dream feeling very disturbed. My entire chest felt

like it was bursting with heartbeat; I could feel heartbeat pulsing

all over my chest.

Love, Semira
