I was Cleopatra:
Memory: One night i fell asleep and had a dream i lived in ancient Egypt. I was not just a normal person, but a beautiful egyptian queen. Known to many as Cleopatra i lived my life throwing myself at men to get myself out of trouble. However i was captured by the Romans and was left alone with my two maids, being checked on every so often. I tried my hardest to seduce my capturer but the attempt failed.
According to famous history i was killed when i was bitten by a snake. However, history is wrong. I was bitten by a snake but this was not the result of my death. I killed myself. I tested many poisons on other prisoners and the one that was most successful, i used. My two maids did this long with me. In the end i see myself lying on the bed with my crown, slightly uneven. My two maids lie dead, one next to me and one across my feet.
I have been having this dream most nights. I don;\'t know how all of it can fit into one night but it clearly is something spectacular. I am a 15 year old boy and am quite disturbed by the fact that i was a beautiful Egyptian queen. However, my mum told me that this is obviously my past life. I believe that i am having these past experiences because i need to prove something.
One of the most important parts of my dream was me burying a journel i had kept. This i think was burried in a dessert, near a historic monument. I do ont know as to whether my past self wants me to uncover this journal or not. I am going to live in Egypt in two years. I have had a strange connection with egypt all of my life.
My mum told me a particular story when i was three years old, i had just started talking. I described all of the pyramids in great detail and there is no way i could have known about them. My mum knew i was on about the historic pyramids.
