scarfman | Old dream

I just described this in a comment in a friend's LJ in response to a poll about dreams, and it really ought to go here too.

Several times when I was a teenager I'd have this dream that was a documentary or a docudrama. The scene was a dramatization of one man's last encounter with another man, from the first man's point of view. Though there was a narrator, I don't recall that I was watching the scene on a screen, but more like actually experiencing it. The second man walks up to the point of view and starts to speak. But then the shot is intercut rapidly with a shot of the second man dying in screaming pain, and I/the point of view can't hear what he's saying in the present over the screaming of the flashing vision. Then the second man is walking away utterly casually and the narrator says, "And he never saw him again."

This dream would wake me up, the three or four times I recall having it. The last time I was about seventeen, and I must have called out in my sleep, because my dad knocked on my door to make sure I was all right.

As far as I know that was the only time I ever yelled in my sleep, but qtrhorserider may correct me.
