Until a few days back, I took pride in my unique, though not so unusual, trait. I rarely dream. Quite literally, I could have counted them on my fingers. Why! Even Raven used to tell me, that she finds it peaceful to sleep inside me, 'cause I dont dream.
That is why, the last few days have been particularly disturbing. As if, all the dreams for the past 21 years were piled up and the dam just broke, my sleeps have been flooded with dreams. Every night for the past 3 days, I have had strange dreams, back to back, until I either woke to the sound of the alarm or woke up alarmed from the nightmare.
It began with one beautiful dream where I was in a different land, and in that land, the moon is really huge and itself had another globe revolving around it, eclipsing it quite frequently. When I stood looking at the moon, I remembered that the moon should have been iridescent blue; instead its grey. People of the land stared at the moon, grief stricken! I started off into the forest searching for somebody.
And after this dream came a series of dreams in which I was in a magical land. There was a girl with me in all the dreams, though in some dreams I was alone haunted by bats and shadows.
Its pleasant to be in a magical land even if it is only in dreams. But it comes at a cost: my sleep! Being the last semester with all its consequences, I can not afford to doze off in class and with these dreams robbing me of my little sleep, I can not help but be disturbed. Oh how I wish, the solar day were 30 hours!!!
