Dreaming in Darkness: A Nighttime Journey

It was deep into the night

I wandered through a maze,

draped in a red dress.

Darkness surrounded me—

yet somehow, I could see…

see things that felt strangely familiar.

Images began to appear—

faces I didn’t recognize,

yet names danced on the edge of my mind.

I cried out to them,

shouted with all I had—

but not a sound reached their ears.

Then, the rain came crashing down.

Cold, relentless.

My body tingled, then went numb.

I felt the strength drain from me,

my limbs slipping out of control.

I saw myself sinking…

and realized—

I was dreaming all along.
