A Strange Dream that Saved My Life!

On July 23rd, 2014, I had a dream odd,

In which I was sharing my view,

With my colleagues about the slight difference,

Between loneliness and solitude.

 

While I was talking,

Four of them kept listening attentively,

All on a sudden, one of the listeners,

A lady was from her desk falling.

 

I saw that but didn’t go,

To help her stand up,

Nor did the others,

They from me wanted more to know.

                                                                                          

I talked on and on and strangely enough,

I couldn’t speak though I tried my best,

As I was eating something while talking,

Even after drinking some water, talking was tough.

 

I felt like I was dying due to suffocation,

Just before my death, I awoke and to my surprise,

I found myself grasping so tight,

Against my throat a cushion!

Author's Notes/Comments: 

There may be some scientific explanations behind this. I was suffering from suffocation due to the tight grasping of the cushion against my throat and my brain warned me about it through the suffocation in the dream caused by eating. That does mean that dreams are not entirely meaningless and reality and dream may have a bridge between them sometimes. I wish Freud were here!
