hallucination

Saw a really weird dream....have tried to describe as best as possible.



Trying to figure out how to remove the mist.
Has loomed up suddenly grey,thick and fast.
Covering up from all the sides. The vision's getting blurry now.
Slowly fading away into the greyness of the memories. It's cold.
Shivering. Wave my arms wildly and take some steps forward.
Intuition prompts a rope hanging from nowhere.
Franctically try to get hold of it.
Stumble over a rock.
Start crawling because that makes more sense.
Tired and sleepy but continue.
Someone feels up.Another screams.
Try to find them.The cold silence descends again.
Finally got hold of the rope.Slimy n slippery.
Hands are slipping away but still continue to hold on.
Suddenly it hurts.Searingly painful.Let go.Realize too late.
Mist disappears.
Falling off a cliff
Into the dark abyss.Fall fast.Too fast.Bright colours.Too bright.Try to shield my eyes from the blur.black..pink..ochre..violet..chrome..orange..finally ........................green
feels very light now.continue to fall
And land with a thud on the dusty mirror. Shatters to pieces.All that remains is the fragmented pieces of memories all over the floor.

Remembering he dream exactly is very difficult and I congratulate you for such a neat description of a weird dream
