Shrinking out of sight

Last night as I was laying in my bed; trying to go to sleep, I remember from my youth a dream.

It concerned me to the point of a scream.

~

I remember all the objects seemed to get bigger.

The reverse in me, trigger.

~

Shrinking always.

Objects growing. Me shrinking. Fear, explore the ways.

~

Felt weird. Strange.

Maybe I was deranged?

~

Smaller. And smaller. Shrinking out of sight.

Always I woke myself, with all my might.

~

Where was I going?

With me, my dreams were toying?

~

Multiple times over my youth this dream did appear.

Always creating in me a fear.

~

Fear of what?

I forgot.

~

Disappearing? Maybe I felt like no one cared?

Scared?

~

Maybe I felt like the world was too big?

Life was a rig?

~

A cheat?

Something I couldn’t beat.

~

An illusion?

Was this my final conclusion?

~

As an adult,I haven’t had that dream.

What could it all mean?

  1. Wonderful Poem

    As far as the meaning of your Dream; As you’ve grown older, it’s common for recurring dreams to fade away as we resolve or come to terms with the underlying issues they represent. The fact that you no longer have this dream could indicate personal growth, increased confidence, or a resolution of the fears and anxieties that may have triggered the dream in the first place.

    Reflecting on what the dream meant to you at the time and how it made you feel can provide insights into your past self and the challenges you faced. It’s also possible that your subconscious mind used this dream as a way to process and cope with emotions or situations that were difficult to confront consciously.

      1. I don’t know why, but I have not had a good dream or a memorable dream in a long time. It’s probably because of lack of sleep.
