Hi. My name is Michael, and if you’re reading this then please share it. On January 5th something strange happened to me. I’m not the strange type of person at all, I have a seemingly normal and average life that I’ve been living. Im single, I work a small yet suitable office job, I have a caring family, I spend my free time with friends or putting puzzles together, occasionally watching TV.. I’m sure the following details have bored you, but I’ve been urged to put down all I know.
As for what has happened.. January 5th, it was a weekday and I woke up in order to get ready for work just like I do every day. I got out of bed, brushed my hair with a comb, brushed my teeth, and put on my khakis and dress shirt.. yet when I rolled up my sleeves I saw a black dotted line over a small space on my left wrist. This was the start of these strange occurrences. The line was like sharpie, some non erasable marker that had gotten to my wrist somehow. I had no memory or clue to where it came from, yet it was there. At the time I didn’t think much of it so I went on with my day. The strangeness happened yet again the next day when I woke up.. I did the same thing as the last day, yet again when I went to roll up my sleeves I noticed the dotted line was gone.. in its place was an extremely thin scar. As soon as I touched it, just a graze from my thumb, it hurt.. the scar had me extremely concerned but what was even more concerning was the fact that it hurt! I convinced myself so eagerly it was ok! Its fine.. I just.. I didn’t know where the scar had came from! I still don’t! It baffles me and I think about it so so often.. anyways. I was convinced it was a weird sprain, so I made a small brace out of some bandage and I decided to head to work, arriving late which was terrible on my average record. I couldn’t even begin to think that day, it was as if my mind was fogged with questions, theories, concerns and what to do? Who gets into a situation like this? Yet again, I convinced myself it wasn’t as bad as I was making it out to be..
Then I went home, I went to bed and woke up the next day. I couldn’t believe it. I couldn’t breath when I saw how bad of shape my wrist was, it was painted with black and blue and looked sickly.. I was so distraught, I yelped in my one person apartment before I cried. Never had I been more scared for what had happened to me! Until of course.. I noticed the dotted lines on my right wrist. That was what killed me. I felt like I was going insane, I couldn’t think for atleast half an hour as I was practically paralyzed with fear of what was happening! I didn’t want to be without two working hands..
So with my right hand still working I left to the hospital, I drove fast, as fast as I could while shaking.. I swear the doctors thought I was there for mental treatment when I first approached then blabbering on how something was coming to scar my wrist, on how I needed the line removed.. yet I was calmed as they took me to get an xray of my worse wrist. They kept me in a room afterwards, I waited 3 hours before a shy doctor came in slowly.. he seemed distraught, which didn’t help my situation at all. “Mr. Dickenson…” he said softly, as if trying to calm me before revealing the neighbor ran over my cat, or my mom couldn’t get me that new console.. “I’m sorry to say this, but from the xrays we have it appears that there is excess blood in your wrist from.. well.. one of the bones in your wrist is.. gone.” He said calmly, my stomach dropped and my eyes widened. What the hell? How the hell? I laughed at first as he showed me the xrays before I explained to him dreadfully how it had to have happened. It HAD to have been in my sleep! The lines!! I didn’t understand. He agreed he would keep me for the next few nights to assess my situation. I was lucky that he was as baffled as me..
So I spent my night in the hospital, and as it can be assumed.. there was indeed a scar on my right wrist, and my left had only been getting worse, more painful, more bruised.. I cried as I saw my situation, something had stolen parts of me.. hell I cant even move my right wrist.. I’ve been painfully jotting this all down with a faulty left wrist, that feels like mush where my bone was stolen. I woke up crying as the doctor came in to take me to get more xrays.. three bones from my right wrist had been stolen. The funny thing? I was in the hospital all night. Me and this doctor checked everything to find any forced entries, we checked security cameras to find nothing had been on them.. I don’t know what this is, this ghost, or disease, or hell whatever is happening to me!! What I know is that I’ve checked my body, again, and tomorrow I will die.. these rotten lines made their mark right where the doctor had said my heart is. He checked and as of now it’s still beating.. I’ve called my parents and friends, and sadly they don’t believe me much. Who would? Without proof like the doctor has I sound insane. I’m writing this because maybe you can escape it. Maybe you’ll be able to seek help when you first see the lines.. because I’ve read stories like this. These ghosts. These demons.. these diseases… they never stop after patient zero. Check your wrists before you go to bed tonight, and when you wake up. I would hate to have someone miss a sign.
I’m in watch now. They have cameras in my hospital room to try and catch it better this time. I’ll continue this if I don’t die tonight.

At birth, the luck tooth was left

It became a fortune so worth

Just smile if your tooth
is aching
Is it in a tooth fortune teller she knows whats up with a rotten tooth

You see I lost my faith in God
When he allowed a ****** to be forcefully deflowered.

Something I'd been taught was so important to him
Of course it's a him. Why else would my crotch matter?

And yet when I had already forsaken an absentee God
I had a tumour, one new enough and large enough
That I needed more than surgery

Xray over mammogram over biopsy,-chemo lingered a Threat.

My mother held my hand and I could see it in her eyes
She was trying to contain the thought that I'd be dead
Before the new year, with the size of my tumour.

I did not feel at the time. I'd seen her face the second visit and I hardened.
Death nor chemo nor invasive surgery,
Nothing could have scared me more.
Nothing more than that look on my mother's face.

Like I was already slipping through her fingers and she couldn't-she tried to grab me, just to drag me back to her arms
But she was too scared the disease was faster than her.

She nearly tried to fight the tumour herself,
And I imagined she most definitely would if she could,
She'd gone full protective, even snarling at her own mother
Especially when she mentioned my low chances should it be bad.
My mum nearly bared teeth.
She was always a fighter, through and through.
She may have seen a world without me for s second
But she refused it.

I suddenly had a new diet,
A new exercise regime,
And a ridiculous amount of vitamins.
If I had a radioactive spider bite. I'd probably be stronger than thanos at that point.

I thrived, I was safe. She cried so very hard and to this day she checks in everyday like I might slip out of her grasp again.

I can't blame her, so I reply everyday I keep my appointments,
My xrays
My biopsys.
I'm so young for this
But no one was ever too young to die.

Awesome, you are.
Liker the creation of the universe and the adding of the stars.
Beautiful, you be.
Words that describe doesn't ever get close.

You don't know how much I love you at all?

Controlling, you not.
You go with the flow in everything you do.
Delightful fits you.
Ask those that truly know of us?
And they will say I hit the word on the nail.

You 're a wonderful woman.

Everything to me.
My world is built around you.
Without you?
I am just a lonely being.

Fantastic, this says all the things about our love

Great, gorgeous and grand.
Anyone that loved you before me?
Most states, you left them, one happy man,

Intelligent, is the word for you.
And this isn't based on any type of degree.
For those with them isn't the brightest bulb you see.

Joyful, jubilant and just.
They all exist within your personality.
And no I'm not boasting or bragging in the least.

Kind, I have seen this.
You left this exciting effect upon the heart of myself.

Loving, what else must be said?

Marvelous, magnificent and magical, are words fitting of a smart successful living woman.

Necessary, you are.
You personally are the center of my heart.

Omnipresent, I can't level you on the word we place around the power of God.
But you a goddess to me.

Passionate, powerful, pleasing.
Three words describing your personality.

Quiet, now this something you are every now and then.
I have seen your excited self around friends.

Romantic, I have been a gifter of this.
I love every moment of your giving self.

Sensual, soulful, self-aware of the world we are living in.

Talented, truthful to every extent of the definition.
Somethings around you I don't even mention because it might create a judgment.

Unique, the word fits you.
I love you for it.

Valuable, if only to me.
But this would be selfish to say.

Wonderful, in every single way.

Xrays would only showcase you more.
You the world could learn so much more.


Zooming like the wind rushing toward your hair.

Sleep is declining,
Nightmares always frightening,
Dreams are so long behind me,
Sometimes I still see, Still feel,
Knowing fate will seal,
Love, happiness, life still steal,
Yes, I love to laugh always clowning,
Pretending and hiding truth which is frowning,
So go ahead, tell me I am too blame,
That my whole life style is too lame,
Friends, Family, maybe true love put out the flame,

Sleep is declining,
Nightmare forever frightening,
Dreams never find me,
Razors blades, veins are split,
Hand in a fist, temper fit,
Hospitals and xrays,
Wanting to be on morgue trays,
Maybe, dreamt a liitle to big,
Charts and goals, Am too thick,
Maybe, everyone right, maybe am just a D*ck,
Maybe, they were right,
Maybe, they were wrong,
Maybe, I am nothing,
Wishing Goodnight.

— The End —
