Peeling Dreams
Posted: Sun Sep 28, 2014 12:35 pm
When I was younger, I would have a set of dreams where parts of me just sorta... peel off, exposing blood. I never understood these dreams, but most of it is me touching my skin, and it falling off under my fingertips.
I also had a dream that had elements similar to this. I had been helping my younger brother take a bath (In the dream he was probably under a year old), when I accidentally bumped into him and caused his head to collide with a metal rod we hung towels from. His head... split into several pieces, and he sat there confused. He then began pulling the pieces of flesh from the top of his head and playing with them, the pain not having set in.
This is probably because a member of my family, as a child, had walked into her brothers bedroom and found him sitting on the bed, scissors in hand, cutting his fingers. He was not used to the sign of blood, and the pain hadn't set in yet.
