Jul 2020
An unknown glare stares back at me
A slightly maniacal, almost evil thing
holding a bottle
Unknown
in the other hand a book and a pen
Her eyes like daggers her body mangled inhuman and pale
I stand there worried for her yet unable to move
Trying to yell but nothing comes out

I look down seeing the pills and drinks around me
The knife on my bed and the blood soaked sheets
As I slowly lose control of my surroundings
I finally scream
drowned out by the world as I lose consciousness
The clock on the wall slows to an almost unfamiliar and daunting sound...

Tick ...

Tock...

Tick...

There’s a warmth
A calming feeling rushing over me
Finally I’m at peace, no one is here
It’s just me

I finally feel someone pulling me out
A cold shock,
then a warm hug,
a comforting hug
A calming voice
A voice bringing to light a waterfall of emotions
Cascading down my body ; I look up
To realize the monster in the mirror was me
