Right at midnight All I saw was red and blue. all I felt was nothing but the metal on my wrists and the hard plastic seat. They parked the car outside a large building. They laid me down and strapped me on the bed. As time goes by I forgot how long I’ve been in this room they put me in. Not allowing me to roam. I believe two or three nights. For I believe the third day they moved me to a new room. I called it the musical chairs. We all were stuck on our on islands screaming and laughing all we could. They gave us pills as some called them candies to keep us happy. For two nights we stayed seated in these chairs not a single toe touching the floor. For who did touch the floor were dancers who performed without music. the music stopped and that meant for me to find another seat. I was given a scrub to wear. And a room with two beds. I stayed alone with a stranger. Not speaking to each other not even a single word. only screams were heard coming out of both of us. They’d wake us up and force us to make our bed, to take a shower. To eat breakfast and drown us In chocolate. I Saw a man get dragged and injected with a needle. For he acted violently towards the security. Just cause he didn’t want to drink his milk. On scheduled days I would talk to a doctor on how i was feeling. If I was feeling anything. I forgot how long I have been in this building. I forgot the sounds of the outside world. I felt like I was in a routine. I loved it. the feeling of living the same day. Not expecting anything different the next day. My mind ran like a robot. I was running on a program in my head not having to force anything like emotions. but in this place you find someone who finds the hidden emotion like love. She wasn’t meant for the building. Not even for the outside world. She had her own world made for her. Her mind ran faster and her movements as well. let’s just call her Loons. Loons had hair like gold and eyes like the ocean. Her skin was pale like a ghost. But her lips were pink. And they felt soft. as they let us watch the Grammys for it was November or December. It was cold but loons kept me warm through out my cold time. She kept me company. But As everything ends as it’s suppose to. She was moved away to another part of the building.
I was left with the screams and the jokers. About three months passed. I was released and I heard and saw everything I had not seen in so long. The sky was brighter and the noises were louder. Even the wind blew faster and stronger. It was difficult to stand on my two feet. The world outside was something I didn’t miss. If I could be locked up in this building again I would. Time went on and I haven’t forgotten her. Not a single day without thinking of her face. For she haunts the back of my head. she keeps me awake at night. And I think of her. It’s been 10 years and I haven’t forgotten. And I know I won’t forget.
A period in time I was arrested and sent to a mental treatment facility. For three months without seeing the outside world.
