Chapter 4: Dreams-Drömmar
Dreams are successions of images, ideas, emotions and sensations occurring involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep. The content and purpose of dreams are not yet understood, though they have been a topic of speculation and interest throughout recorded history. The scientific study of dreams is known as oneirology.
When I was a child and id have nightmares i run to my mother and sleep with her. Sometimes shed sing to me until I fell asleep. As I walked through this dark Forest I noticed I was wet and cold. Then I Began to hear Sweet melodic violin music, as I followed the music through the twist and turns of the forest I began to feel colder and colder. I finally came to a stop at a waterfall; there was a tall man in the middle playing a violin. He looked up and smiled at me. He stopped playing his music and motioned for me to join him. I did
"Tycker du om min musik Eric?" (Do you like my music Eric?)He asked in a soft sing song voice
"Ja sin vackra" (Yes its Beautiful). I said looking around me.
"Vet du vad jag?" (Do you know what I am?) He asked continuing to play his music.
"Inga" (No) I said shaking my head
"Jag är en Näck" (I am a Näck)he said smiling evilly.
He returned to his music and looked away from me towards the other direction. I followed his gaze and I saw Sookie standing listening to the music. A soft but confused smile crept on my face, But it soon fell as I remembered the stories id heard about the Näck luring people to waterfalls and drowning them. I tried to run towards Sookie but for some reason I couldn't move from my spot. I struggled to move as she got closer to the water and jumped in. She immediately went under but did not come back up. 1 minute…2 minutes…3,4,5. How long could she stay under and leave me in agony. Then Her body came back up. Suddenly able to move I ran towards and pulled her body into my arms. But when I turned her over the person I was holding wasn't Sookie it was my mother.
"Min son" ( My son) she whispered.
"Mamma" I chocked out holding back my tears
Her eyes closed and her body quickly turned to bones. When I looked back up the the Näck had disappeared and my father stood in his place. Wearing the same thing he did they day he died.
"Dess ditt fel, Its all ditt fel. Du bör ha varit där för att skydda oss Erik. Var var du, varför werent dig där. Är det för att du hatade oss eller för att en smutsig röd leds hora är viktigare för dig än din egen familjen. du kommer att förlora henne precis som du förlorat oss precis som du förlorat oss. " (Its your fault, Its all your fault. You should have been there to protect us Eric. Where were you, why weren't you there. Is it because you hated us or because a dirty red headed whore is more important to you than your own family. You will lose her just like you lost us just like you lost us.)
""Jag är så ledsen pappa im så ledsen. Jag älskar dig så mycket"( Im sorry Father Im so Sorry)
I woke up with tears of blood streaming down my face. But instead of sad I felt Angry. I would not let what happened to my family happen to Sookie. I cared about her to much. But could she love me, Could anyone love me? After everything ive done did I even deserve to be loved? As climbed out of my coffin and wiped the streaks of blood of my face I couldn't help but picture my mother's face when I was holding her in my arms, before she turned into nothing. A weaker man would have broken down and cried, but I'm not weak im a survivor. I will find the man who took my family away from and I will protect Sookie from any harm. Even me. Maybe she could teach me how to Love again. Maybe even for me there is Hope. For love and Happiness I see you
I see you
Walking through a dream
I see you
My light in darkness breathing hope of new life
Now I live through you and you through me
Enchanting
I pray in my heart that this dream never ends
I see me through your eyes
Living through life flying high
Your life shines the way into paradise
So I offer my life as a sacrifice
I live through your love
You teach me how to see
All that's beautiful
My senses touch your word I never pictured
Now I give my hope to you
I surrender
I pray in my heart that this world never ends
I see me through your eyes
Living through life flying high
Your love shines the way into paradise
So I offer my life
I offer my love, for you
When my heart was never open
(and my spirit never free)
To the world that you have shown me
i_see_you_lyrics_leona_
But my eyes could not division
All the colours of love and of life ever more
Evermore
(I see me through your eyes)
I see me through your eyes
(Living through life flying high)
Flying high
Your love shines the way into paradise
So I offer my life as a sacrifice
And live through your love
And live through your life
I see you
I see you
