I AM IN A DREAM, AM I?

I AM IN A DREAM, AM I?

A Story by yuarian

The sun is bright. It's past noon and I was walking in a sandy road.

There are trees on the side of the road and when you look around, everywhere is lit with a very bright sunlight.

That's weird. But it's better than dark, right?

When I look up to the sky I couldn't see any clouds.  

The road that I am walking to doesn't seem like there is an end.

It is so bright here.


The realization hits.

I AM IN A DREAM!

Whenever I see this bright light I know it's a dream 

Then I saw someone walking in a distance

Walking towards me

I don't know this person but it was smiling when he passes by me.


I kept walking and tried to see the end of the road

There's nothing but this endless path

I saw another person walking towards me and it's smiling too.

I don't know where this people are coming from

So I asked her, " This is a dream, right?"

Their face didn't even move or anything

"YOU DON'T SAY THAT HERE" she replied

Then her face starts to change 

I ran away even though I don't know where I'm going.

Didn't look back because I know for sure that whatever that is,

it is not a HUMAN.

I am no expert to rate this out, but I'd love to give a review. The first few stanzas or lines you could say felt like a fresh breath of air, u know like when you're bored and you get out of the house in the noon and go sit in the park or something, it felt like that. Later something just you know a switch goes off, when you mentioned that her face starts to change. I love it by the way, represents opposite feelings very nicely. For me it shows how you were happy at first when you thought this was a dream, but that one thing changed that feeling of happiness into fright.

Dreams can be so bizarre. This seems like a lucid dream that got convoluded fast. Monsters maybe?
Spirits warning you? Guess one never knows.
