Dream Junkie


Figments of what I can recall from one of my dreams...

It was about a man who fell into a deep sleep, he became so enamored with the dream - or confused between reality and dreamland, that he simply remained in the dream. Eventually - all of his dream characters began telling him it was time to wake up, but he wouldn't.

There were brief moments where he would wake up, and one of his dream characters would "follow him" into real life - to ensure he stayed awake, and argue with him - that "reality" was where he belonged. In those moments, he simply crawled into another bed, in another room, and went back to sleep - like a dream junkie.

The fellow even looked all strung out, with messy hair, emaciated from not eating - except he was in striped pajamas.
