My 8th Nightmare

Last night was a terrible one. My 8th nightmare happens. A very frightening dream occurs. I don’t know why I’m prone to nightmares. I don’t eat a lot at night w/c most of the people say as the reason for it. I though I was gonna die. All my nightmares are like reality. All fears are in there. It feels like your killed little by little by those fears in the middle of your dreams.
I sleep at around 8 pm. I only eat 3 pieces of munchkins and drink a glass of water (well this not too much right?). I sleep early because I’m planning to continue the doraemon drawing in photoshop in the morning. The nightmare attacks at around 2 am. These are the things I remember on my nightmare:

-I was walking and all I can see is black and suddenly after taking few steps, I fall into a hole that looks like a never ending one. I saw a small light and I try to reach it with my hands. The light got smaller as I continue falling at the hole. I reach the bottom of the hole and it is a deep body of water. Someone is pushing my head down trying to drown me.

-the next thing that happen was I’m again back to the dark surface. I was talking to myself wondering why all I can see is black. I am screaming and I’m the only one who hears it and I thought I’m awake. From that, I become aware that I’m having a nightmare. I want to wake up but I can’t.

-the next scene was I am lying on a grass and saw darkness slowly covering the light. I look behind and I saw a bed. I lie down on the bed to sleep. After few seconds, I saw someone beside me trying to wake me up. I don’t know who he is. His face is covered and wears a black cape. He holds a book on his/her hand. He covers my eyes with his hands and as I open my eyes again all I can see is darkness. A gun was aimed at the back of my head. He whispered “Why” and he pulls the trigger. With the gunshot I woke up back into reality.

When I woke up, I was catching for my breath. I feel like I came from a long run. I’m so exhausted that time. My eyes are teary and I’m sweating a lot. I make a sign of the cross and said “I’m glad I’m alive, thank you Lord”. I drink a glass of water and went back to bed but I’m thinking if I would still continue to sleep. I’m afraid it might happen again so I turn on my pc and design a picture with a theme “nightmare”.

Here is the pic:

I used a vector skull and colored it. i add some strokes to shapes and a sunburst for my background.

you know what, i remember the time when i had really really bad nightmares.. it was the kind where i knew i was asleep and i wanted to wake up but i couldn't move and i'd start to panic. it was horrible. x.x i wanted to scream but i couldn't.

anyway, i realized later on that it was because i was hiding so many bad secrets from everyone and lying to the people i love that somehow, my subconscious wasn't really resting because it was very guilty..

other reasons could possibly be that you're very tired, or very worried about something.

so, yeah. sometimes what happens during the day affects your dreams.

i hope you're not having nightmares anymore.
