There`s an uncanny resemblance between sleep and death. We can feel emotion to the point that we wake up crying but have no control over our own bodies. In a bad dream, if we are being chased we just can`t run fast enough or if we are standing in the middle of an insect garden, we just can`t escape. There`s a helplessness, a vulnerability, that we submit to when we decide to sleep. Some of us only have nightmares to look forward to when they sleep, which leaves them broken and exhausted. The one thing we use as an escape from reality, sleep, is another reality to them, a dark cage. I have always been fascinated by the idea of dreams, they are a gateway to the fears and desires of man that his conscious mind does not have the privilege to enter. Bad dreams scare me. But what scares me more is waking up from one nightmare into another one.
