I slowly wake up to the sun shining on my eyes and the birds chirping in my ears from the top of the tall pine tree about 10 feet away from me. I walk and walk then I get down on my knees and grab a snack from my backpack. I grab some cereal and a granola bar I get out my milk and drink it as fast as a pig can roll in mud. Then go ahead and run and run and run. Until I get tired. I think I should go back but I am way to far away and lost but at least I did what I wanted to do. Once. Now I relize I can not give up now. People need to know that I mean what I do and that I am stronger that they think I am. I need more rest. My eyes, they get tired too quick. I slowly bend down to tie my torn shoe laces. I can't explain what is happening. I imagine my mom. Also my dad, I see them, they see me. But then suddenly a sound inturrupts my thoughts with crumpling of dry, dead leaves. I hear that voice in my head again. It sounds like my friend from when I was 11. She was an orphan too, she escaped 2 years ago. Then that sound, again. I cannot think about her. She was my only friend. Now, I am alone. Alone.
