I run in the woods. I want to get away from everyone. Everything.
I'm crying every single tear of my body.
I'm sad.
I'm mad.
I'm angry.
I'm scared.
I'd like to forget.
I don't want to remember anything. But I can't. So I run. I run as far as I can. I run as fast as I can. I can't even see the city anymore. The thick forest gets bigger around me. Branches, leaves, feathers, thorns get stuck to the long blond hair I've grown over the years. I keep going.
I'm cold.
I'm tired.
I'm lost.
The rain isn't stopping anytime soon.
I want to go home to the heat of my old house. I won't. I cry instead.
I see a tunnel. My mind tells me I should stop there. My heart doesn't agree. I can't focus on anything and my legs are too tired to keep running. I fall on the ground. Just in front of the tunnel.
Then I see black.
