~ Walking Higher

~ Lonely on top? Or be surrounded together?

~ Walking Higher

 

 

 

My dreamscape was inside this castle

I ran through thoughts heavenly heavy

Like running through cold water,

I couldn’t move my legs so well,

As they were stuck as burning hell

To the gravity twice times harder

I tried to move on a bit

No clear vision of where to go,

The instinctive brain, forced me

Reading my impulses, and to follow them,

Higher and higher instead, touching my

Dream, gasping for breath,

Tearing eyes, cheeks so red

Where was I lost in my home? and

Why did I ran that fast?

Twice fallen on my face

As I was fighting the space

No ending realm, to rest for a bit,

Haunting and creepy stairs

As they did not fit

They turned around, and moved

Away, like I couldn't hold to stay

I couldn’t move on anymore

Falling deeper and deeper,

With adrenaline in my chest

I did stumble on thoughts

Fall into the big black hole

I decided to stop….

Losing my mind….

Running in higher mazes

This wasn’t what I wanted

Being caged in a building

I needed fresh air, and some

Grass under my feet,

Not walking higher and higher

To fear and to run or escape

This suffocating dream, was narrowed

And yet took too long,

Rescuing myself by singing me

Out of the dream scheme, a song

I jumped onto the window in front of me

Glass pricked within my skin

There arose a crimson hue

Not knowing I just killed myself,

And woke up next to you….

This reminds me of one of my recurring nightmares, but you're always on the move, searching, feeling, losing control, gaining it, regretting it .. a mind full of mixed emotions, screaming, fighting for escape, tearing at your mind's pictures, wanting to rip at the canvas of them .. so frightening .. and then, that ending, the realisation that there's no escape, no getting away from what turns out to be reality in a place of your own making .. and where you find who and what you find. Your words really drew this reader deeper and deeper, and, somehow, you found my fears. Eli.

Thank you so much Emma, for your wonderful thoughts on this xx

A haunting vision with a beautiful journey into the ghostly world then into reality full of intricate details that make you jump and run into the arms of someone... But to wake up next to a beloved... Very artistic dear E.L.
Keep on dreaming big...

This was a vision I had.... I have many.... some are awkward, others are lovely, but love to experiment about all kind of psychological subjects. :) Thank you Sami, always a pleasure to have your thoughts!

You are always welcome...

Creepy good. The concept of dying but waking up to realize you're not going anywhere. Destined to haunt/ your own private hell of ghostly purgatory? Enjoed this... Thank You for sharing this one Eli
