I was in the middle of a warzone and I saved a little child from a burning house and he was so afraid to die. So he stuck with me and I protected him and held his hands as we we were running past the battlefield, trying to bring the kid to safety, as if I completely forgot about myself. So once we got up a stairs we saw a door that would lead us to our great escape, but turned out that we couldn't enter that door together, but for some reason it could only be me and I had to go through it. So I was forced to let go of his hands and he started to cry out of fear saying "please don't leave me!" As I was slowly fading away through the door and I was crying as well. Once I went through the door, I woke up crying.
This dream could potentially symbolize feelings of protection, sacrifice, and the fear of being alone or abandoned. The warzone represents a chaotic and dangerous situation in your life, possibly reflecting times of stress and conflict. Saving the child from the burning house could signify a desire to protect and nurture others, demonstrating your compassionate nature.
The child's fear of dying and their reliance on you suggest a need for security and support. Holding their hand while running through the battlefield illustrates your dedication to helping and guiding others, even at the expense of your own safety.
The door represents an escape or a way out of the turmoil. However, the fact that only you were allowed to pass through it indicates that you may feel alone in dealing with the challenges you are facing. Letting go of the child's hand signifies a sense of separation or inability to bring others along on your personal journey to find peace or resolution.
The crying from both you and the child reflects the emotional difficulty of this separation. It suggests your empathy towards others and the pain you feel when forced to make difficult decisions that may lead to a sense of abandonment.
Waking up crying suggests that this dream has stirred strong emotions within you. It could be a reflection of your deep concern for the well-being of others and the personal struggles you face in maintaining connections while navigating difficult circumstances.
