[ cw ] write about the strangest/scariest/saddest dream you 've ever had in less than 200 words .

As I moved up the hill to my house, I knew in that way that can only be explained by the fact that I was in a dream. I walked down into the yard, through the front door, and I just knew that they were gone. I wasn ’ t sure of what had happened, but I knew that they were all gone. It had that sort of lingering sad feeling to it, that would look like twilight if it were a time of day. It might have been twilight in the dream. I don ’ t remember much of how it happened, or what happened afterwards. I just remember being there, and knowing, and feeling the finality of it. It was funny, because I never really considered us to be close. But that ’ s what made it sad in the way that it was, because I never tried as much as I should have or could have, and I never had the chance to say goodbye or apologize and explain myself. It was a simple and profound feeling of utterly resigned sadness. I knew, deep inside of me, that it was over, and that there was nothing left for me.
