DANCING DREAMS
This vision is a recurring one, same place, pitch dark ambience, I am moving around in different directions. Am I dancing? But, where is the music?
Yes, the place looks like a pub, but since it's pitch dark, I couldn’t really understand how the ambience is. But, yeah I am moving like almost dancing, so, yes I think I am in a pub, dancing. Why there isn’t any music? And how am I dancing without music? Why there is no one with me? What am I doing alone in a pub and that too dancing alone without music? How weird is that!
And, why am I scared? Shouldn’t I be happy while dancing?
Oh no! I can see it now. It’s all visible. It’s no more a pitch dark room. I can see the aerial view of the city. I am going horizontally, I performed a somersault, a backwards one, a forward flip, now I am going vertically down, I can feel the freefall. But how did I reach here?
I am going down at the speed of 200 km/h. I am going to hit the ground soon and I am going to hit my back and bum very badly. The thought itself is making me sick and soon enough I am going to be sick, very sick.
But, wait, I have a parachute with me, so I can descend slowly at my sweet pace and land successfully. But, how does this work? There must be some clip, a switch to flip it open. Yes, I got it. Wonderful! Now, I can enjoy the aerial view with freefall. And here I come, all set to land.
Whoa! I planned to land but there is no land, and I am going to hit the water. Splash! Why did I leave my swimming halfway? I should have learnt it and it could have saved me from drowning today. I am not able to breathe; I can feel the water in my mouth, throat, lungs and everywhere else. I am going to die soon. I never imagined a solitary ending to my happening life. Bye, life!
“How many times have I told you to switch off the light before going to bed? You never listen to me. You lazy bum. Now get up. It's 10 AM madam. We have to attend a Toastmasters meeting. This girl is so crazy!”
Who is it? Wasn’t I all alone, about to die? Whoa! Splash again! It was a dream. I didn’t hit the surface of water instead a bucket of water hit my face. I am alive. *Relieved*. My roommate is cursing me, but I love her, she saved me from dying today, and I hate her at the same time because she brought my adventurous and dancing dream to an end.
