The Dream
Falling, falling to nowhere moving yet so paralyzed.
I remember it all I was first running up stairs, down halls, until I got of the roof. Still running I jumped over to another building and kept running from her. All the way until I got to a dead end, I didn't know what to do so I started working my way down the building by throwing myself over the side. I held on to the edge just below hoping she wouldn't see me. When I thought it was safe I pulled myself up onto the roof. But to my dismay I saw she was there looking at me. Then I realized she was me. I had been running away from myself. But there was something different she wasn't mad, she was sad. She walked up to me and took out something from behind her back and stabbed me with a knife. I started bleeding and all of a sudden so did she. Started crying and then she shoved me over the edge of the building, I tried to hold on to the building but she the smashed my hands with the handle of the knife I slipped and she left me falling to die then she jumped herself. When she caught up with me in the fall, she went back to where she came from....in me.
Still falling I wonder what she had done what I had done. I had killed myself and I was still falling with no means to end. I looked down, There was nothing but darkness. I cried out for help but no one answered.I was all alone and it was all my fault. I thought I was free of her the person I was before, so many years ago, but I wasn't. She was my past and after all those years of running away from it, it finally caught up with me. And now I am no more. No longer living, yet not dead yet. The fall is still there. I will never stop falling or I will fall only until someone will help me up again.
Until then my heart will race and I will scream,
and bleed forever and more.
