last night i had this dream that i was running away from something...someone...and it was dark and raining and i couldn't really see except for when the lightning flashed overhead. i ran into something very solid and got knocked out. when i came to, i was inside. still wet, but i was inside. like a cabin...there was a fire going in a large fireplace, and there was a shadowy something over me. crouched down, its head directly over mine. watching over me, staring at me. i see a hand come out of the fuzzy darkness, and it caresses my face. the skin is soft and smooth. i'm guessing it was a he...don't know why, but its hands looked like guys hands. he touched a spot on my face that felt like fire. it burned and i cried out in pain. he jumped a little and pulled his hand back. cautiously, it came out of the darkness again toward my face again. there was a cut there, and it was still bleeding. he disappeared into the darkness, and i was left there lying on the floor, facing the fire, covered in blankets and more comfortable than one might think. the shadow returned, with a bandage for the cut on my face. i keep expecting him to say something, and he never does. i try to sit up, and i get dizzy and hold my head, he gently sets me back down on the floor. i fell asleep again. i sort of drifted in and out on this dream. there are spots i don't remember in this dream, so i'm guessing i was sleeping or something. when i woke up again, he was tending to the fire, it's starting to go out again. he's tall, and it looks like he's wearing a cloak of some sort. he saw me stir, and came back and sat by my side. crosslegged, but i still can't see his face. he's got a hood over his face. he touched my face again, tracing the side of my forehead, my eyes, my cheeks, my chin....i just closed my eyes and took it all in.
when i opened my eyes again i was in the forest. the cabin was gone. he stood over me, with an outstretched hand to help me up. i slowly got up, and the dizzy feeling came over me again. instead of setting me back down, he catches me, and holds me up. he puts his arm under mine and we start walking. we walk and walk for what seems like a very long time. oooh. i have to go, i will finish this dream later.
