dream journal

I woke up from a really weird dream. I only remember bits and pieces of it, but it goes something like this:

It was midnight and a girl was walking on the pier of a lake/ocean. She was pregnant and looking out over the ocean. A man walks behind her who is apparently her boyfriend/husband. For some reason I knew that in order to give birth, she had to be underwater. It made sense during the dream, don't ask. She looks up to the man she's with and says, "I have to go now". The man replies, "I'll go with you". Then there is a long pause before she says, "Will you save me if I drown?". The man nods silently. Then she dives into the water and he follows suit. I see her in the water, kicking her feet rapidly and pushing the water past her so she could go deeper under the sea. This goes on for a while until she suddenly slows down, her arms and legs finally relaxing. She drowns, but it isn't horrific. Something about it is ethereal, and strangely beautiful. There is no chaos, no noise, no sound. She gracefully lets death consume her in a melancholy way.

The man swimming behind her realizes she is drowning but does nothing to save her. How can he? Both of them are in too deep to be able to make it to the surface in time. He slowly closes his eyes and drowns, just as gracefully as the girl before him.

Despite the strangeness of the dream, I woke up knowing that they were happy when they passed away.

For some reason when the dream was happening, everything felt so real.

Also, I personally knew the girl and boy in real life, but I don't want to mention their names. I don't want to tell them about this dream either. Hopefully it won't come true. I know it won't come true. Even though now that I think about it, parts don't make sense, the actual logic of the events didn't even cross my mind while i was dreaming. Dreams are weird like that.
