Calm Before the Storm

I have this dream sometimes

I sit comfortably,
Wrapped in the blanket of my life I am cozy an warm
All is quite, and peaceful

But then I start to shiver
A chill sets in
I grow cold
The blanket starts to rock like waves
Until it has sublimated completely

Suddenly, I'm beneath a dark ocean

Black water enveloping my spirit
It pulls me
down

Fast, powerful waves thrash me about, ripping me apart
A suffocation I can feel in my veins

I don't remember which way is up.
I don't remember how I got here.
I don't remember what it feels like to be safe.
