Flashes.
Different images of places I don't remember.
Nothing makes sense.
What have I been remembering and then forgetting?
The woman I see daily says its normal for me.
That its understandable for someone in my condition.
What does she even mean?
She even told me I'm a criminal.
What did I do?
And then...
Blood.
The walls and floors painted liquid red.
Ear piercing screams.
Everything covered in death.
One minute...
I'm in a room.
Standing in the very thing covering the bodies and even my own clothes.
The next...
I'm in a hallway.
Strapped to a stretcher and taken down a dark hallway.
Why is my mind going crazy?
Even the doctors that look after me don't know.
Insane.
Is that what I am?
Have I been taken over by insanity?
That's it.
I've lost it.
I've jumped into a dark abyss that I can never get out of no matter how hard I try and struggle.
Insanity has taken over.
And its here to stay.
