As Death Stared Back

by Ajinkya Bhasme

“A dream is manufactured from a deep psychological place buried in our unconscious. It is the product of conflicts between our deepest, darkest desires and what others expect of us. Often, the dreams that come across as sweet to us are not really positive.They are the result of anguish, realising imagery that could be. Every dream,sir,is technically a nightmare.Like a wolf in sheepskin. Many cultures believe that dream catchers block nightmares and help to realise your sweet dreams. But what it really does is just make the wolf hungrier, projecting itself as an alibi while lurking to hunt an entire village.

It holds an obscure darkness within itself that even the light of a million suns cannot relinquish.”

sometimes it takes birth in such a deep place that by the time it surfaces, you only see mere drops in the eyes, but the sea inside remains hidden.

most of its brightest lights hold the darkest stories within them.
