I dreamt.

I was in my childhood bedroom. My mom was with me and we were getting ready to go to a National Park. I couldn't figure out what to wear. I tried on different outfits but finally decided to wear a kimono that was covered in moving stars.

I stepped out the door and I was at a National Park. It was a tropical forest at the edge of a sheer, gigantic cliff. The bottom of the cliff was covered in clouds. There were large cracks in the ground and underneath the cracks were blue rocks that gave off a beautiful glow. There was a boardwalk that wound around the park.

I walked around the park and took in the splendid sights. I lay down on a bench at the edge of the cliff and fell asleep. Then, I rolled off the bench and fell into the cloudy abyss below.

I awoke.
