I wonder if anyone could give me a hand in trying to figure out the meaning of this dream?

This must have been close to 15, 16 years ago that I had this dream, and for some reason, the memory still disturbs me on a very basic level, and I haven't the faintest idea why...

I was roughly 6 or 7 years old when I had this dream. In the apartment my family shared, I slept on bunkbeds with my brother on the top bunk. Next to my bedroom was a spare bedroom that was a craft/storage room. On the other side was my parent's room.

Now...the dream was that I was waking up to find myself in my bedroom. Everything is, for some bizarre reason, slightly pink. There is also NO SOUND AT ALL. I can't speak, can't hear a thing, footfalls make no sound, nothing. I'm just lying in my bed, when all of a sudden there is a noise. A very small, almost pin-dropping noise. Suddenly, I'm crying my eyes out. I don't know why. There was a very profound sense of loss. Even as I type this, I get goose bumps because it's so creepy. I have yet to come up with any rational explaination for it.

Any ideas?
