A dream of water

a dream with water

I was on the coast, towards the East of the country.. She was with me but she wasn't, I could just make her out getting in the choppy grey waters under the murky grey skies and swim towards the West, presumably towards the City in the centre of the coast. At the same time I was her, struggling in the water to make way ahead and breath, the many miles of water ahead of me condensed into a single experience.

I was walking alongside on the coast, barely able to get an occasional glimpse of her in the water, struggling forward, while I, who had it so much easier just having to walk that many miles, was already panting and sweating... I could just about make him out there, walking near the water-line; I knew he'd be more tired than I was. The sky was gathering big grey lumps rolling together very low, the storm was coming, the water was the colour of steel, there were many, many miles of this ahead of me.
