title: i had another sad dream
Last night, right when I fell asleep, Haru said,"She wanted to go to the ocean, but I couldn't take her."
title: a sad dream...
I once had a dream, so long ago. Every night, the dream continued. I was flying high in the sky, looking at the clouds. It seemed to expand forever in every direction. Below me was the blue sea, it was so calm. The day began to fade into night, and I found myself looking up at a crescent moon. Every dream I had, the moon got closer to a full moon. I was in a field a different dream. I was lying on my back staring up at the sky. There were only a few clouds. The wheat was blowing all around me. The wind had a steady breeze. Someone very dear to me walked me back to my home, which was a large japanese style home. I could not tell the time, but I knew it was a very long time ago. It seemed like my dreams had gone back so far. The night came slowly. I looked up at the moon, closing one eye and put my fingers up to it. I sighed and then laughed at myself. I fell asleep right there, wishing to be up in the sky. The next dream, I learned the person's name. I had called him "Haru". Haru said we had to leave, or I'd be taken somewhere I didn't want to go. I looked up at the sun and breathed in the fresh air. I thought to myself "This is the best summer ever. I never want to let this go. I love summer, I love the sky, I love the ocean." Haru grabbed a sword and we started running. There was many people chasing after us, but we ignored them. I now understood how dangerous this trip was going to be. I learn that we are trying to find a friend of mine. Her name is Ayane, and she was also a winged being. We were the two last ones. Haru and I walked so far. I stared at the sky one night. The moon was so beautiful, a full moon, surrounded by shining stars. On that night, we reached a cave. That's where Ayane was. She was hidden in there. When we walked in she said "Do not touch me, do not come near me, for I am tainted, and I do not wish this curse to fall upon you." I did not listen to her. Instead, I ran right over to her and hugged her. She hugged me back, though. I knew that's what she wanted. As we left, we were attacked. She was hit by an arrow below her heart. We managed to escape. Ayane, even though she was dying, smiled up at me and Haru. We talked about what we would do next. Haru and Ayane wanted to live by the ocean. I had never been to the ocean, only seen it flying over. I said, "I've heard the ocean is like a vast puddle that stretches forever and ever." Haru replied with a laugh, "No, it's salt water. You can't drink it." Ayane laughed quietly. You could tell she was in a lot of pain. Haru sadly said, "Kanna, why don't you let your friend rest?" I just nodded my head, I knew that she wasn't just going to sleep. Ayane smiled and said, "Thank you. My sleep might be just a little long, though. I do not wish to be buried. Leave my body here without touching it. You have wings, so you must fly. Carry our wishes high into the sky." Then she drifted off into a sleep, a sleep that would never end. I stood up, and uncovered me wings. I looked up at the full moon, and smiled at Haru. "You gave me the best summer ever. I wonder, why do humans always look to the sky? Why do you try so hard to fly when you don' have wings? " I said. He replied, "We can dream, can' we? Even you're dreaming. A never-ending dream. When dreams don't end anymore." I grinned at him. I said, "Bye bye, Haru. I guess we never got to go the the ocean." Haru gave me a sad look, but I was already to far up. So many arrows were shooting at me. I was being cursed. Haru was yelling at me to fly higher, but it was impossible. I was back in the blue sky, with the clouds surrounding me. It expanded forever, the blue ocean was below me. But, I was so sad. I missed the person who was dear to me. My dream faded off to a different dream, like memories fading away in the eternity of time. I realized how much I would miss that summer. I shed a single tear, and then I woke up.
title: the recurring house
Me and My friend are looking for a flat or someplace to live in Stockholm. This was also the situation when I was awake so in the beginning it is hard for me to tell if this is a dream or not.
The situation is getting rather desperate as we have found a few dozen adds on the internet but no-one has returned our calls, just like it was when I was awake. The only thing that's different in the dream is that my friend is not the same one I used to look for apartment with when I was awake. But it doesn't bother me because I'm actually rather dubious about living together with my other friend, the one I was looking for an apartment when I was awake. I'm not sure we'd get along and I'd rather live with this new friend in my dream.
We have just been turned down on a small two bedroom apartment when a colleague of mine from the church where i work tells me he has an empty house all to himself "We could live there all three of us", he says and we agree to go and have look at it.
It's a beautiful house built in the churchyard right in front and downhill of the south entrance of the church. "I don't need a lot of space" he says, "and the house has four floors so we can have one floor each and still share the kitchen and the living room on one floor."
I decide to take the top floor for myself as I always do, where there's a cozy loft and the ceiling is low. everywhere you can see the naked wooden beams and the structure of the house. There is a lot of light and air everywhere small windows facing the churchyard.
I walk around, planning where to put my furniture. My friend and my colleague are downstairs looking at their rooms. I am on the top floor, choosing which room will be my bedroom, which room will be my office and which room will be the room where I drink tea with all my friends. And all the time I have a strong feeling that I have been here before.
And that's when I realize that all of this is just a dream. It will all go away when I wake up in the morning and I will still be sleeping on the same sofa in my brothers apartment where I was lying down yesterday. I know this is a dream because I have dreamt about this house many nights before.
Some things are always the same. I'm usually there with friends, and there's usually naked beams in the ceiling. The floor plan usually differ but it's always the same atmosphere. As if it's a really old and sturdy house that's been there for many years, and I always love it. This is my dream house. The house I always dreamt of; literary.
But as I look around I am surprised to see that something actually has changed since last I dreamt I was here. There's usually something that needs to be fixed in the recurring house of my dreams. It's usually the perfect house save for that big hole in the floor or the hole in the in the roof or the broken beams that needs to be changed. But now I can't see anything that needs to be mended. Even the walls seems to be covered with a fresh layer white paint.
