The Dreamer
by
Lisa Peters
I have always been a dreamer, whether I was sleeping or awake. When I was little, my dreams were not always your typical little girl dreams. Instead, of kittens and rainbows, I would also dream about deceased family members or people I did not know and far off places, that I had never been.
Sometimes when I had the visitor, they would tell me things such as they were happy and safe; there would a bright light around them. Other times, they would be scared or confused. Being little, I did not understand what I was dreaming. My mom thought I was being an emotional little girl and one who had a big imagination, and that I was having nightmares/night terrors.
