It's crazy how much power a dream can have on us.

Had one with my old man in it and I was a kid.

Felt the exact same terror I felt when I was that age. There's this look he'd give me and I knew I was absolutely fucked.

I woke up semi hyper ventilating.

Even after all this time, even as a grown man, you never forget that stuff I guess.

I'm getting child abuse vibes. Am I reading into this too much?

Nah you're not. It was random acts of violence.

Makes you hyper vigilant as an adult.
