I had an amazingly symbolic dream last night. Kinda freaky tho....
Again, I was being chased by vampires (this has happened alot to me lately in my dreams...). I fought a bunch of them and won, only to keep getting attacked. Ends up Marcus was the main vampire. He had been turning everyone I knew into the throngs of undead he sent after me.
There was one point when he even came after me himself. He had just bitten and killed another friend, right before I got to their house. I saw him lurking off in the woods, calmly walking away. So, I leaped into the air and flew over and landed in front of him (this is a dream LOL let me just tell you tho, that'z another very symbolic thing to me. Usually in my dreams, when I fly, I'm terrified. I'll be running and each time I take a step I have a harder and harder time keeping my feet on the ground. I start accidentally pushing myself in the air and start losing speed because I can't touch the ground. Or I start floating upwards, but I can't stop. I don't want to fly in my dreams beacuse I'm so scared of never being able to get back down, to not have any control and die...). Well, I managed to do it.... I pushed myself off the ground sooooo very fuckin' hard that I flew right over the trees and struggled so hard to get myself to fall back down. Which I managed to do, but it was tough.
He took one look at me and immediately recognized me. He had been looking for me and was hurting my friends to hurt me/find me. As soon as I landed he ran straight towards me with huge fangs and enormous claws. He was going to try and kill me--make me like him--but I just ran straight towards him too. Right before he reached me I dodged to the side and grabbed him and threw him over my head behind me, causing him to slam into a tree.
It hardly phased him tho. He just stood back up like some pale, inhuman freak and charged me again, wicked claws extended and bloodlust in his eyes.... There was no way I could stop him, I had to hide.
So, I did the only thing I knew how to do, even if I was scared... I flew.. LOL Str8 up in da fuckin' sky! I flew the fuck away as hard as I could....
Don't remember some of it here....
Somehow I ended up in a cemetary at one point. This was my 2nd encounter with him. I ran around thru the whole cemetary trying to get away. I kept dropping stuff everywhere--grey beads I think. He was obsessed with picking them up. I told Jeff (I think it was him. Whoever it was was telling me that we had to run) that was with me that as long as I kept dropping more when he was almost done finding them all, he wouldn't chase us anymore--it was buying us time. Well, I kept him going for a bit and managed to get alot of beads spread out in the cemetary and we ran.
I went to my parents' old house--the one I grew up in in MI--to lay low and think for awhile. I hid in my room. Kept talking to my family and everything was going okay, but I hid in my room alot. Angie was even there. She was being a regular, annoying bitch, but it was more like the old Angie--instead of the pathological liar she is now. She was all up in my business too.... God she annoyed me LOL.
Well, I was on a computer, trying to find something I could do to save myself. I just wanted to give up and hide. Well, I ended up meeting this person-- but we chatted for like forever. Some unfortunate boy who had been bitten by Marcus, who I started to care for after awhile. He was turning into a vampire because of him. It was lust at first sight :) LOL j/k I don't know what it was... it was some weird lust/love thingy (isn't that how vampires work tho? LOL), but he was still turning into a vampire and would be under Marcus' control. I had to find some way to save him before he died and became a vampire.
--And again.... My sister Angie kept trying to eavesdrop on our conversations... She would try to read over my shoulder on my computer, follow me when I'd go meet him... stuff like that... I had to keep it hidden, cuz I was playing with fire. If I won a fight against Marcus, the other guy would just die anyways and become a free-willed vampire. I had to find another way to stop it. Otherwise, I would lose the one person that really mattered to me because of Marcus, whether he was there or not.
I think I woke up there... Stupid dreams never have an ending.
What does it mean? Marcus was a fucking monster, and turned everyone around me into people just like him. Him just walking away after turning another friend into a vampire was just how cold and uncaring he was...the fact that i got attacked by friends after he changed them was about how little I meant to people. No one tried to help me... They all joined him instead.
I had to conquer my fear (the flying bit) to even try to survive. and the 2nd time I flew, I had total control. Which means I learned how to handle myself. I knew how to run, and I knew how to do it right.
The gray beads indicate my fear, fright, depression, ill health, ambivalence and confusion. (or that'z what grey is supposed to mean). His obsession with making me feel that way, it was like he was cherishing and keeping each bead which symbolized my trauma. It was sickening to watch him fumble with all the beads with his disgusting claws and that weird fucking psychotic smile on his face. It also makes alot of sense because that'z a metaphor for how I got away. I manipulated him with those feelings... acting weak and acting like I cared for him to make distance between us--to loosen the grip-- so I could suddenly disappear. Grey is can also mean that u feel emotionally distant or detached... which is what I had to do to everyone to get away. Someone kept telling him where to find me in real life. I had to close myself away from all my friends because one of them was a monster, but I didn't know who.... It'z sad when ur friends know u don't want your stalker to find you, and know enuff to not tell YOU that they told him, but still do.... and can act like a friend to your face.... So every time he found me, I moved again and cut another likely source out of the loop... telling everyone not to tell HIM or THEM about where I was... and it would happen again... Ended up moving about 6 times in about 1-2 years... and was left with no friends left, because he kept finding me--even when I'd move places an hour away from where I used to live.... Not until I cut EVERYONE out of my life, did I finally find peace. I made new friends and never saw him again... *rolls eyes* Hence, friends turning into vampires....
Kinda ironic that Jennifer and I used to call him an emotional vampire LOL
My parents house is easy... It was the first place I ran.... None of my family were vampires in my dream... They never turned their back on me in real life either. I probably dreamed of the house in MI cuz I told him I was gonna go there cuz then he'd never be able to find me again. When I was going thru it, I really just wanted to go there so bad and never turn back. And my sister, Angie, was just being my sister, Angie. LOL She really is like that... Always trying to get me in trouble or cause trouble... It was all cute tho... turned into a lil romeo & juliet with vampires thing...
The guy was just everything I looked for in love. I couldn't get past the vampire bit tho.... Sounds like me now. I don't get in relationships, I don't let people get close, I keep up those walls.... all because it's a way to keep myself protected from being hurt again. --but that'z the symbolism behind that person. Marcus still rules over me and affects my life. He still tells me what I can and cannot do--and there are very very real consequences (in my head) to making a wrong decision. That last part of the dream is the only important bit, the rest is just telling me why I'm like that....
That imaginary guy is the moral of the story: If I don't let go of my past, I will always see monsters--even when there are none....
