Dream: Sign Your Life Away

Date: 12/12/2016

I can't remember much. This was a fever-induced dream. So most details drifted away when I awoke. ------------------------------------------------------------- I was a young woman pulled into a world of drifting darkness. At least...that's how I remember it being described. In this world a man was trying to trick me into signing some kind of "marriage" contract and I was told to walk a certain path to sign it. I walked down the path I was told and along the way I see ghostly women till I meet one at the end where the contract is at. She was a beautiful black woman with the most gorgeous honey eyes. she stared me down. "I wouldn’t dare sign that if I were you darlin. You'll lose all that you are in a matter of seconds." she told me as i glanced at the paper in my hands. I looked up at her. "Shred it now. I've warned you." she said before vanishing. I stood there, hesitant, before flashes of the lives the other ghostly women once had. A beautiful red-headed woman who ran a bakery. A sassy Italian girl who was just starting her clothing line. A lovely Spanish woman that had gotten her first big movie role. So many others, dreams and lives stolen from them. I tore apart the paper as I felt the path begin to break. Cracks formed and soon I was free falling in the sky. The black woman from before smiled at me, whispered a "thank you" and faded. I woke up with my heartrate having skyrocketed.
