Pulled Into the Cosmos By An Entity

She grabbed my hand and pulled me into the sky
We travelled fast through cosmic clutter
I was shocked and my heart was beating fast
Not aware I had left my body, intrigued now.

Not an angel, not a fairy, something else
Something unknown. She took me to a new planet.
I was too intrigued to ask questions.
Tried to open my mouth twice. It was glued shut.

Fear for a second; then I was surrounded by new colors.
As an artist, I was delighted to see colors not known on earth.
Bright ones, dull ones, ones I cannot recall truthfully.
I remember the sheer wonder of realizing there were others though.

She turned and looked at me. Her eyes had turned black.
She had a dragon-like head; I felt threatened. I tried to scream.
Nothing came out. I felt trapped, frightened, stolen.
WHOMP! I hit my body fast and hard. 
Woke up with my heart beating double time

At first this sounded like a NDE, but then your last stanza made me think it was more of a nightmare. Very intriguing Caren. xxoo

It is my usual waking up in the middle of the night dream actually Connie which makes sense as my father was an astral traveler and I suspect I am also.
