My Nightmare.

The Woman By The River.

By Chris Liberty Published 5 months ago • 1 min read

Night came soft, and i closed my eyes. I did not know i was inside a dream. I stood on a hill with my younger brother. Below us was a quiet river, dark and deep. Then i saw her. A light-skinned woman stood by the river bank. Her long dark hair fell like night on her body. She wore a long red skirt filled with tiny shining things. Her chest was bare, but she did not look evil. She looked calm… too calm. She kept gathering white breakable plates, placing them beside the river one after another. But her eyes were watching me. She acted like she was busy, yet i felt her calling me without words. Slowly, something touched my body. A strange power. Like small electric shocks running through my skin. My legs became weak. My heart shook inside me. She moved closer in spirit, trying to pull me near. But i resisted. Then my younger brother threw a catholic crucifix to me, i caught it tightly in my hand. At once, the woman stopped. The river became cold. The wind cried loudly. Then i woke up. But even after waking, the strange electric feeling was still inside my body. And till today, i still remember the woman by the river.
