I Had A Dream

I was standing on a beach at what seemed like the onset of dusk and across the water loomed a city shrouded in darkness. The skyscrapers in the forefront were huge, blackish-grey, but only the outlines were visible. Larger still was the outline of an oil plant consisting of only 1 huge drill like tower. That image was all I remember. It struck me as I've never seen a city look so fascinating, but so ominous yet inviting at the same time. The way it was considerably darker than the beach around me hinted stay away, yet I was drawn to it and wanted to go immediately. I remember having this ridiculous notion (as I'm afraid of heights) to scale the drill and if I fell it would be of no consequence. That meaning is obvious, but the city itself...

As my discontent with the country increases so does my fascination and longing for the city. I want it...but will it suit me? It appears this dream is just outlining my fears but somehow I feel like this is either a warning or encouragement. Will the city be too large, too dark, and will I fall trying to scale it? Or will I be fascinated, and even if I do fall I'll enjoy the experience?
