the Second Dream

Dreams quickly fade with the clearing of the fog of night, yet a few linger in the waking eye. Three such dreams have I known one of past one of now and one yet to come. These dreams have etched a path on my life well beyond the sweet land of sleeps .

the Second Dream

It was the night before Christmas and I lay restlessly awake in the up-stars of my grandmas house. To hasten the greedy daylight I tried to drift off to sleep by to play a fantasy throe my head. I set the place in a dark ally and Courtney, a cute girl from our old church walked alone a bit head of me. It seamed that we had been separated from the rest of the group. Here there was no one to see or know what happened, I was a lonely ally and safe in this dream world. My thoughts stated to turn to lust, I began to plan how I would rape her in this dream land. my fantasy was interrupted by a unwanted intruder, someone my mind did not wish into the dream. A man dressed in black jumped out of the shadows and lade holed of her and began to abuse her. My blood boiled as I raced to her aid. We fought like furies from hell and at last I pinned him to the ground and wraped my hands around his throat. As he struggled the ski mask came off and with rage I looked down on his face and into my own eyes…
I woke up gasping and vowed to fight him (my sinful part), to destroy him and all his bothers even if it cost me my life.

It was not many months ago that this dream came back to life more vividly than ever before. I was on a mission trip on the gulf coast with my church youth group we were walking back from dinner late at night and we took another rout back to the place where we where staying. Kristen and Jordan walked beside me most of the group had gone much father ahead by the time we got to an ally. My breath left me as I stepped into it... it was the same ally as my dream. I had never been there before in my life but I recognized every detail, the trash can, the board leaning against the brick wall... every thing.… All the mussel in my body tightened and my mind waited for anything from within or without and my heart stood guard of it's gates. I believe that if a cat had tried to cross that ally at the time I would have kicked it across town, I was that on edge. I left that ally and felt that in a way I had passed a great test, there will be more to come but I know that I am on the right path, Gods path.
