THE DREAM

I don’t know if dreams have any real connotation about one’s life. It is said that dreams unify the mind, body and soul. Dreams are mysterious and fascinating; they scare, amaze, give strength and break you down in pieces and what not. My confrontation with dreams is on every nap I take. In years, I haven’t seen a happy dream. I sometimes wish that it’s fine if I don’t have a joyful dream, but I should be spared from the nightmares. At times I run and go through such frightful torments in dream that I find myself awake as restless and exhausted as possible.

I have some recurring dreams too where I am either under water fighting for a survival, or some planes landing at my roof or some meteorites or similar things approaching me. I fear to sleep because there are moments during a dream that though I realize that it’s just a dream and if I open my eyes things would be fine, I find myself helpless and unable to open my eyes and let go the dream. It’s most likely a powerful thing which holds me tight and I can’t fight back. I also encountered my late grandfather a couple of times or more, he talks to me and says that he is around. I don’t understand if there is any meaning behind such dreams, if there is a signal or if I can interpret something by occurrence and reoccurrence of similar dreams.

Amidst all these tiring dreams I have seen you thrice so far in past few months, technically twice, because once it was only your voice which I heard. But whatever the case, I felt the magic when I saw you in my dream today. As usual the start of my dream was with running and trying to save myself from some random danger and then I enter a room where it’s only you and me. I stop and we smile at each other, my previous dream is over, there is nothing from which I am trying to save myself, I am not running. I look at you and you look at me and we don’t talk, we are very close to each other, we just smile and then we smile more and more…few minutes pass by and you say you are off to play football. We come out and you are gone, it’s the crowd and I am finding a place for me to sit. I don’t see you again and my dream is over as I wake up.

I am clueless what it signifies, or may be it doesn’t any, but if you are the only one who can bring a smile on my face and make me forget about all my worries, I won’t fear to dream. Whatever it is but I smiled in my dream after ages and I thank you for this. I want to sleep and dream, dream about you and me. 
