Do you ever have a dream that just stays with you?
Just the essence of it.
A feeling.
Floating around you and settling just over your left shoulder, weighing you down the entire day.
I won’t go into details cause peoples dreams are on par with birth stories and blow by blow accounts of pap smears – completely riveting for the person telling the story, not so much for the tellee.
Am I right?
The essence I speak of is what woke me and kept me awake, my body screaming in retaliation…
A dead girl standing before me, trying to speak to me but her tongue was cut out.
A black gaping hole.
Wrapped completely in black plastic. She clawed her way out, mouth moving without any sound.
Faceless.
I can see her in my minds eye.
I can feel her behind me.
On my shoulder.
Behind the door or around the corner.
The essence of the dream still with me over 12 hours later and stronger if I keep still.
Fuck me dead this place is sparkling, dinner is prepped and I just made cookies.
Anything to keep my mind busy.
And the girl, silently screaming, at bay.
Does this ever happen to you? Please tell me I haven’t just descended into a whole ‘nother level of crazy…

Can’t say I have but *hugs and comfort food for you*
No new levels of crazy. A very eloquent dream that speaks out loud and clear. I’m sorry you’re having those yucky feelings; I’ve had that kind of clingy dream, too.
If you feel like a chat, here I am, my love.
They haunt when they really hit on something that is hurting inside.
Not being able to scream is such an isolating thing, to let people know what you are feeling.
I have disturbing dreams quite often, they are horrible when you can’t shake that awful dream feeling of impending doom. Your dream sounds like a particular corker of one too. Hugs x
I’ve never had this happen, but that doesn’t mean you’re crazy. Not at all.
It probably means I’m unfeeling; emotionally stunted or something.
It’s an interesting dream though, a psychologist would have a lot to say about it. She/he might say the girl is you struggling to be heard and then she/he would charge you the equivalent of two porsches and a swimming pool to find out why.
It’s not a good feeling, I’ve been there. I find reading a book or watching an engrossing movie that takes me out of myself helps. Good luck. 🙂
Jesus, when dreams come straight out of horror movies… I don’t agree, I’m all ears for people’s dreams. But then, I like holiday photos too…
Very strong images there… talk to your psychologist about it!
Oh dear Kelley! That would be very traumatising. We need a dream interpreter stat!!
. I never experienced like that. It’s so scary for your part. If ever happen to you again just try to pray and it will be disappear. It’s only a nightmare and maybe it has nothing to do to interpret it. Many also experienced like you do.
This dream of yours is freaking me the fuck out, have you been watching Japanese anime horror? Hope you find your voice soon.

I agree that sounds like sick kinky stuff, and not a good dream to have…
I deal better w weird dreams tho than w super-realistic dreams of banal scenes – w people who ate no longer in my life for a reason. Those scare me and I think about it all day..
