I'm running. from what, I don't know. I look behind me. oh. that's what. I see myself, but also not myself. her face is... distorted, and she's covered in disgusting words. stupid. worthless. ugly. ingrate. kill yourself. shit. weirdo. it says everything I monologue on a daily basis. it, almost hurts to see myself like that. I stopped running, and let my doppelganger walk towards me. she stops about 2 feet away from me. I reach out to touch her. My index finger touches her face, and she turns into black smoke. I stand there in shock. after a few minutes, I hear creaking. I turn around. there's a tree falling, falling towards me. a tear ran down my cheek. but, they were tears of joy.

and then I wake up.

I bolt up from my sleeping position. I'm panting. I can feel my heart pounding out of my chest. My eyes are wide, and they start to water. I start to process what just happened, and start crying. I'm curled up in a ball, attempting to rock back and forth. I start mumbling things like "no no no no no..." still traumatized. was that real? am I a ghost now? didn't I want to be dead? why aren't I happy? I'm bawling now, convinced I was dead. I feel like I'm going to pass out.
My mom runs towards my room in a hurried matter. she pushes my door open. "oh my god. eli, are you okay??" My breathing starts to slow, and my crying starts to quiet down. I start to realize that I'm not dead, considering how my mom can see me and touch me. she hugs me tightly. "oh my baby..." I find it weird how she treats me like this, since I'm 14 years old. you would expect this from a 9 year old kid who just had a nightmare about falling off a cliff or something. not about half wanting to die and half wanting to live in a dream.
I eventually calm down completely, and grow tired. My mom kisses me on the forehead, and tells me to have a good night. yep. cause it's been such a good night so far, huh?
