if i can only alter ones dreams to make them absolutely perfect..


how can something really perfect turn into something that haunts them in their dreams?
why does it seem as if something's always bothering us even if we try to forget the complicated things that happen to us in our lives?
why do dreams haunt us?
when will our minds give us a break?

since i've been getting less than 5 hours of sleep every night for the past month (essays, projects, television), ive been too tired to even dream. instead, my mommy's been getting the worst of dreams.
my mommy's really well-known among her friends and my relatives to dream on a regular basis and end up screaming (high pitched, long scream!) in the middle of the night and sleeping again. i've slowly gotten accustomed to the fact that she screams in her dreams, because her dreams are always about a treasure being discovered by others or about something she lost. the dream she had last night was really different, though. she wasn't able to fall back asleep yesterday after this one. here it is!

-there was a man in her dream who had skin of a mannequin. he said "this is what being burned looks like.."
slowly, half of his face was being melted away and he was in a pudding-like form on the floor.
my mom screamed, but wasn't able to sleep again.

if i had that dream, i'd be even more terrified than my mommy. why do dreams like these haunt us? my mommy read the newspaper before sleeping, but she said she's never watched any movie or read any story about the one in her dream. i find the dream really eerie in a sense that nobody would ever think of something like it.

wouldn't it be perfect if we could alter our dreams?
sometimes when im half awake and half awake, i'm able to change my dreams by adding characters
when i was younger, i didnt dream often. even if i did, i've obviously already forgotten about it the next morning.

i hope these dreams dont haunt mommy anymore
i hope the dream maker allows my whole family to sleep safe and soundly every night.
