Through My Eyes

Have you ever been able to close your eyes, and still see the darkness of the back of your eyelids like they are still open? I have; and I know this feeling all too well.

The dreams first started when I was just a young girl around 8 or 9 years old. I would go to sleep, only to awaken scared and shaking. The dreams were so real, that I was scared to go to sleep every night. In my dreams I could see a small glimpse of future events to come. While sleeping, I would awake, or seem to awaken to the same pitch black darkness that I experienced while sleeping. I dreamed of going blind.

I told my mother about the dreams, only to be ignored because of my age, and vivid imagination.
