A Melancholic Song

Date: 5/3/2024

I was leaving France, where I had just lost some very close friends ( they died ) and going back to the states. As I was trying to get through customs, some girl was trying to sign her name to my passport. I kept telling her she cdnt do that, but she kept trying anyway. She thought if she cd just get through the door into the United States ( at the airport ) that she wd make it, and it wdnt matter what happened to me afterward. She almost did it too, but just as she squeezed in front of me as the were holding out my passport for me to take and then sign, I called her out on it. "HEY! YOU CANT PUT YOUR NAME ON MY PASSPORT! THAT'S ILLEGAL!" Ithen squeezed past her, sign my passport myself, and walked through to the u.s. Once back in the U.S, a song started to play in my dream, as if it were a movie or something. I don't remember what song, if it even was a real song, but it was melancholic. I was walking down a street, in the rain. In one part, I cd see my old friend who was now deceased, kneeling on the pavement, with her dirty blonde hair and her back in view of me, as she painted something on the ground. I knew this was a way I was accustomed to seeing her. My heart ached, I reached out to her, knowing it was just a figment of my imagination, and cried as I kept walking. Her image faded, and the song then started singing on about how I will now paint new experiences. I will paint with new friends. Shades of red, orange, and even green leaves, in circles above us as though we are looking up at the trees, disregarding the rain and the droplets making ripples in my paintings. As this part went on, I went from walking, to floating, circling the ground as though I really were painting that image... I circled all the way to the ocean, where I landed in the water. A guy I had feelings for ended up in the water with me, along with one or two other ppl. I went out a little farther than them though. Just a little farther, but it was too far. Suddenly the other friend screamed, "TIGERS! THERE ARE TIGERS, SWIM TO SAFETY!" He meant "tigersharks", and there was one right next to me. I did t need to make it far. Just 15 seconds from me was an area I cd swim on top of and then grab a dock. But just as I reached it, I knew the tigershark had gained on me. It wd be miraculous if I get on the safety thing before he or another tigershark got my feet/legs. It was at this vital part that I awoke. I was trying to grab my blanket in my sleep for safety. Trying to find it is what woke me.

AI generated interpretation This dream contains a variety of complex emotions and themes that can be interpreted in several ways. Losing close friends in a dream often represents a sense of loss, grief, or the need to let go of something or someone in your waking life. The girl trying to sign her name on your passport could symbolize a boundary violation or intrusion into your personal space or identity. It may suggest feelings of vulnerability or a fear of losing control in a situation where you feel others are trying to take something important from you. The melancholic song playing in the background as you walk down a rainy street may reflect sadness or longing for the past, particularly for the deceased friend you saw painting on the ground. This could indicate unresolved feelings of grief or a desire to hold onto memories of the past, even though you know they are no longer tangible. The imagery of painting new experiences with new friends in vivid colors suggests a desire for renewal, growth, and transformation. The transition from walking to floating and circling the ground while painting may symbolize a sense of freedom, creativity, and exploration in your life. The scene transitioning to the ocean, with the presence of the guy you have feelings for and the warning about tigersharks, can represent feelings of danger, vulnerability, or the need to protect yourself from potential threats or risks. The struggle to reach safety before the tigershark reaches you may reflect a sense of urgency or fear of being overwhelmed by obstacles in your life. Overall, this dream may be reflecting your subconscious processing of loss, boundaries, transformation, and the need to navigate challenges or potential dangers in your waking life. It may be helpful to explore any underlying emotions, fears, or unresolved issues that these dream symbols may be pointing to in order to gain insight and address them in your conscious life.
