Prison

10 2 0
                                    


I sat alone

An empty cell

Gray walls

Surrounded by nothing but the echo of my breathing

I breathed heavy

My knees bent

Curled to my chest

I'm alone

No ones here 

Just me

Me and my thoughts 

A room with no doors 

A terrifying fate

Where'd they all go? 

They said they wouldn't leave

Maybe they'll come back..

I look at my hands

Stained red from the blood of my knuckles

They felt numb now

It felt like it had been years since I tried to escape this prison

Yet my knuckles were still bleeding

Fresh, warm blood 

I coughed

The noise echoed

Piercing my ears and sending chills through my body

I have no idea where the light is coming from

There's no source

It just is

A bang from outside

Another prisoner I assume

Trapped in this prison

Becoming enemies with the only one who can heal him

Developing a hatred for himself

Man knows no bounds when it comes to hatred

Why am I even here? 

I just woke up here one day

Everyone gone

I must've been here years at this point 

Yet

The light had never flickered

Never gone out

Or revoked its kindness

Maybe that was the only thing keeping me sane 

The only thing keeping me from tearing myself apart 

All these years I'd spent here

That's the only things that's kept me above water

On solid ground

I looked at my hands again

Still bloody

Still looking as if I had only tried to escape moments ago

Then

The most horrifying of my fates had taken place 

I heard a bell chime

A bell I hadn't heard all the time I was in here

However, I recognized it and my eyes began to tear up

I began to lose my control over sanity

That bell.

That bell marked the end of the hour.
