I was on top of a house and I was trying to get down on the ladder. I was trying to get down to fast and I fell. A second before I hit the ground I was pulled backward by something. I could see the ground blurring beneath me so I knew I was going very fast. After I woke up I realized I'd had similar dreams when I fell from a good height and was saved at the last second. I had this one long enough to get out of shock (during my dream) so that I almost looked around to see what was pulling me. Before I could it dragged me into a bed in an empty room (that wasn't mine) and I woke up. |
