Wow! That death dream is really something. I had a similar feeling of peace when at the end of a dream, I realized I was dreaming and looked at the sunset before waking up, but death in dreams for me always ends up with me waking up before feeling anything. I'm glad you are able to have such calming dreams!
Here's a dream I had a few days ago.
I was living in a different house, but I was standing outside of it, walking to the left side of it back to the front a few times, moving things while helping my dad fix a car. A few times while at the front, I saw a brown pony over the fence on the right-front side of the house. It beckoned me towards it once, and I jumped the fence and followed it to the backyard. The sun was down and there were so many stars. The area was well-illuminated as if it was a warehouse. The pony turned into a man in a blue suit when I wasn't looking, and he had a worried and happy expression. He told me about how he was so grateful that I'm helping him get out of this place, thank you, thank you...
After that, I don't know what happened, but I was now the man in the blue suit. I was confused, but it only became an issue when another man in an orange suit approached me excitedly. He said things like, I'm so glad you're back, where were you, I missed you, let me show you around to see what's changed. I didn't say anything because I was confused and nervous. I showed the most signs of distress when he brought me to the left-back side of the house. The neighborhood before was poorer, colors more in the green-blue range, single story houses that were farther apart. Now, the houses were two stories, closer together, and everything was more yellow-orange. The neighborhood was also brighter and significantly quieter, which scared me. There were also a lot of lesbian flags on the sides of the houses, and I remember thinking if maybe me and the other man were actually women; I looked at his face, and he had long eyelashes.
Next, I guess he dragged me along to a store. At the store, an old woman who looked cartoonish in her features but realistic as well, who had very unnaturally long limbs and maybe extra joints, and generally who seemed very inhuman, told us we had to make music for her in order to buy anything. The orange suit man said that this would be easy for us. Apparently, the blue and orange suit men we're a musical pair. I very nervously sat at a piano which had four to eight large glowing keys and played a song, which was terrible at first and then delved into being just okay. The orange suit man played a flute, trumpet, or something like that, and seemed confused but didn't say anything. We we're totally out of sync the whole time, and it was a bit unusual for the blue suit man to select the piano, but not totally impossible.
The old woman deemed the music acceptable, so we went on to shop at the store. I didn't say anything the whole time, but I think the orange suited man spoke to me a lot. At one point, I must have felt enough guilt or nervousness to crack, so I turned directly to the man and told him that I was sorry, that I'm not the person who he's looking for, and that if I could die to return him to his place, I would. His constant smile dropped while I was speaking to him. The orange suit man very naturally responded by asking if he could kill me now. I said, nervously, that it would have to be painless. Me motioned a punch with one fist and pointed at it with the other, implying that he would punch me in the nose in such a way to kill me quickly.
Um, after that, he did not punch me, and the dream kind of devolved into a video game like setting. I think that part was kind of boring or uninteresting, but at the end of it, I logged out of the "game" for a long time. At one point later, I thought to log on again to see if the orange suit man was online, and although he was, he was AFK. I logged out again before waking up.
I didn't realize until after waking up that it seems like the blue suit man tricked me into taking his place! He did seem very grateful, though. I don't know how I feel about a strange dream like this. : )
