My 9/11 dream I never told


I had this dream in the days immediately following the tragedy of  the 9/11 

For some reason I never  publicly told this dream in fact I never told it to anyone.

My dream was very short but the contents very  full.  I guess I never told it because at the time I could not be sure If  the images  in the dream was  from what I had seen on television but in hindsight I realize now it was not . 

The dream starts with  fire truck sirens in my head  I see the truck pull up to a building  and the firemen come out with equipment and proceed to travel up stairs as people piled past them going down and there is no rush.

The dream now changes and I'm inside of the building, I am not myself I am a white women. The dream starts inside one of the twin towers I believe it was the first tower to collapse  ( I will tell you later how I came to that conclusion.)  I am at an elevated position at the very top of stairs and with me is my husband we both are dressed in blue or green scrubs, somehow in this dream I know both me and my husband are doctors.  Somehow in 3 dimensional view I see myself and can describe her as a slim petite woman my hair is in a ponytail and its strawberry blond, although I cannot describe the features of my husband I know he is a brunette. We are making our way down stairs with others, slowly no one is rushing, although we are not quite at ground level I can see ground level from my vantage point because I can see the Sun shining through the Lower windows( this is also how I knew it was the first tower because the sun still peaked through the windows, after the first tower there was no Sun) I have never been inside the trade center I've  never even  been to New York. I saw a series of stairs each at a lower inclination than the stairs before it. We were at the third up bank of stairs before reaching street level . The hallway was very wide we all continue to walk slowly when all of a sudden I hear someone yell "the buildings coming down!!" "the buildings coming down!"  and just at that moment everyone breaks to run, but I knew it would be to late. The building was falling like dominoes but not vertically but horizontally. The front of the building started to collapse  first and the collapse  was moving towards us, we knew at that moment we were done for, so both  me and my husband stop turn towards each other we kiss and we embrace and when the bricks fell there was no pain, no sound only the feeling of being buried in a grave, I woke up at that moment. 

I believe this was a transference dream meaning you are not youself but someone else. These dreams are revealing dreams to teach empathy or I believe in my case to be a witness  I don't know if this couple existed, but I believe I dreamed this dream to be a witness to what could have been lost, what could have been unknown. One more story that needed to be told. R.I.P. 9/11 victims .
