Do you find yourself writing about certain things when you didn't mean to? Or find recurring themes you didn't put there intentionally?

I write about dreams, especially in my poetry. I'm pretty sure it's because I can never remember my dreams, and even if I do remember them they're always out of focus. So I guess I focus on the mystical side of dreaming: why it happens, why we can't remember them...stuff like that. Love and loneliness also show up a lot, usually as sort of secondary themes or something like that. (I posted a poem a while ago, if you want an example: http://solumin.dreamwidth.org/872.html)

In my stories, there's sometimes a man-vs-nature motif. Gods and the supernatural are usually involved somehow.
