Wow! A very powerful 100 words! One wonders how many times Jack awoke from this particularly vivid nightmare, reliving what must have been one of the darkest moments in his life. Perhaps this explains how (why?) he developed his overwhelming fondness for rum, as well as his proclivity for burning the midnight oil whilst the rest of the crew were abed in their hammocks. Easy to understand his reluctance to give himself up to sleep, when it might be haunted by such dark dreams.

Poor Jack! At least, here, he has his beloved Pearl to afford him comfort, and freedom.

And the final line -- great callback to the desert island scene in CotBP, when he spoke those same words with passion to Elizabeth, and might well have been the source of the haunted darkness hovering behind Jack's eyes as he reveals his brand and scars to her in the deleted scene.

As Pearlseed said, quite chilling!
