My head is in the clouds my heart is the water my body's is drifting floating drowning away nobody can save me I'm already gone

I woke up with a thick coat of sweat on my forehead panting uncontrollably I raised my knees and layed my head on them I placed my intertwine fingers on my head and I started rocking myself back and forth , every night I had this dream but everytime it seemed to get worse every single time.

My head felt heavy and all I could was darkness I stod up as fast as I could and headed out the tent it was still dark and the fire was still burning I sat by the log and stared at the fire I then closed my eyes and listened to my surroundings I couldn't hear much but the rustling leaves and distant noises.

Who would have guessed that I would in a mental institution , me ? It's actually quite surprising I was that girl and by that girl I mean the girl who everybody knew would be destined for greatness we were both supposed to be but fate had other plans if I could turn back time I would I would sacrifice my life for his with a blink of an eye I miss him , I miss his face , his hugs , his laughs , his personality I just miss him and because of a stupid decision I had made I cost him his life and mine in the progress.

After the accident I have to admit I wasn't myself and others believe that although I'm alive and breathing I died that night and I don't blame them to think that way because it was true deep deep inside I knew it was true but my stubborn self doesn't want to believe it.

"Your going to freeze out here" Madison's voice echoed through the woods

"I'm not cold" I said turning to face her

"Where did you used to live if this isn't cold" she giggled softly and sat by me looking into the fire

"I'm sorry about Leonardo by the way" she said playing with her hands

"Sorry? Why are you sorry"

She sighed and turned her body to face me and placed her hand on my shoulder usually I wouldn't allow this but Madison reminded me of myself and it was kind of comforting in a way

"He hasn't been thee most welcoming person ever and I'd like to apologize for that even I know I shouldn't be the one apologizing for his behavior but I know what's it like to be new in a place like this and I guess all I'm trying to say is we like you and we don't want someone like Leo get in the way of a new friendship"

"Thanks I guess" I don't know how that made me feel I was a bit surprised at her kindness you'd think all people at a mental institution would be grumpy and sad but that wasn't the case for Madison she was different a good different and that made me even wonder more why was she here she seems normal but you can't judge a book by its cover because a persons pain is skin deep.
