I keep having this deam
Where im lost in the woods nobody can be seen no matter how loud I scream...
I'm walking in the woods and I come to a spot where I must decide which way do I want to go
How am I suppose to know when traveling in the woods all alone ..
Scrapes and cuts appear as I try to fight through these woods
But no matter how hard I try I end up right back where the woods divide ..
It is now dark and all hope has gone out I fall to the ground and look up to the sky but all I see is darkness not even one star which shows me how alone you truly are..
These woods represent my life I feel like no matter how hard I fight no matter how many scars I have to show for my effect that it will never be enough. I will always end up right here.. Right where I began wallowing in my tears..
Lost in the woods of hurt and fears..
Never to escape

Those woods can be either lonely and scary or places of solitude and self-reflection; right now yours are scary.
I hope you don't mind if I try to explain what your dream said to me; after so many years of nightmares, I have had my share of interpretation experience.
I am going to assume you feel alone a lot of the time, even when surrounded by others - I think the trees ARE the other people. Actually I think they are your interpretation of other people, bigger than you, stronger than you and never responding to your cries and screams. And the cuts and scrapes are your perceptions of the pain that comes with the struggle of life.
Are you facing a decision that you can't seem to make? Often such decisions are presented as forks in the road or diverging paths.
Your woods are scary and you feel alone, but you are not alone there. There are a lot of us in that woods looking for our own way and looking for you. Until you stop struggling and allow yourself to feel comfortable with others, allow yourself to see how strong you really are, you may not be able feel good being alone. This will probably take help from a competent counselor or at least a good advocate. And no one will be able to make the choice for which way to go; that is your alone to make. But others will be more than willing to go with you once you make that decision.
Once you have learned to love yourself TOTALLY, to respect yourself above others, the scrapes and pain will diminish and you will find the others in the woods. They are there, just waiting to you to deal with your fears and quieten your screams so you can hear them calling to you.
I hope some of this speaks to you - if not, feel free to toss it and look elsewhere. Again, this is JUST my take on it, and I may be way off, but I do hear your despair.
I wish you my best in your travels - let us know how you are, because I do hear you screaming and I want to reach out to you.
