Somnockia: A gender related to the passage of time, dreamy colors, foggy weather, decades worth of leather-bound journals filled with cursive writing, massive dark academia-ish libraries, aging, feeling your life slipping through your fingers, knowledge that only comes from living, funerals, graves, crumbling headstones, and melancholy. It could also be related to the Aerosmith song Dream On and the Guns N’ Roses cover of Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door. Some also may experience this gender through a Saudania lense/as a Saudania gender, though that won’t apply to all users.
Some lyrics that describe the theme of this gender, and that it may be related to though it doesn’t have to be, are:
“The past is gone || It went by like dusk to dawn”
“I know nobody knows || Where it comes and where it goes”
“Half my life’s in book’s written pages || Lived and learned from fools and from sages”
“Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away”
“Mama, take this badge from me || I can’t use it anymore || It’s gettin’ dark, too dark to see”
“That cold black cloud is comin’ down”
“Feels like I’m knockin’ on heaven’s door”
The name comes from a mix of Som(n) from somnium or somnus (the latin words for dream and sleep respectively), (n)ock from Knockin’, and ia from Dreamiagender or Saudania
The colors are inspired by my associations with the vibe of this term
This was for the third day of my coining event! Prompt: Dream On (Aerosmith) // Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door (any version)
