This is insane.
Plain and simple.
Caught between the emotional throes of
happiness and anger.
I felt like a hurricane.
Deep within the confines of this poor
excuse of a body, my nerves tingled with the strangest anticipation.
Blood seething with a rage that begged
to be unleashed.
Gritting my teeth, I begin to breathe.
Inhalation.
Exhalation.
Something precious inside me threatens
to snap.
To rip me in half and leave me dying
in the chaos that will ensue.
I pull myself up in bed.
Slipping out of my bed.
The screen of my open laptop casting
an eerie light through the darkness that enveloped my room.
I arrive at my dresser.
Slip into clean underwear, a dress
shirt, fitting jeans.
All of the same worn black variety.
Quick ruffle of the hair and I was
slipping through my open window onto the garage roof.
A few steps and I reach the lowest
corner of the roof, grabbing the gutter and lowering myself as far as I could
before letting go and falling the last couple feet.
Landing heavily, I quickly rush to the
end of the backyard, reaching the chainlink fence and slipping up and over.
Now in the rocky alleyway I peer both
ways before walking into the darkness.
From out of my own Hell;
And in to The Shallows.
