Trapped in Lucid Dreams I stared into the old lady's black eye empty and dark, and touched by madness I spoke, almost chanting, "I want to wake up, I want to wake up..." There was laughter in that crazy eye. No window to any soul but a black hole into which I was falling, pulling me down into madness. I was getting lost in the darkness and talons of fear were reaching for my heart. She pulled away, as if to release me but I was still trapped within this nightmare. No knowledge I contained, no science or wisdom had anything to say nor help to give. How to awaken when you know you're dreaming is a lost art and I fear I'll never learn. (based on a real dream I had 2 nights ago, with this lady and her black horrible eye. I "knew" it was a dream, wanted to wake up so bad but didn't know how. I think it works as a metaphor for life too. I may expand further on this one, not sure it's done or developed how I want it because of that.)
