This one was written by me, but you see, SashaL and I have been throwing random prompts at eachother, and this one was to write something using a song. I chose "Sweet Sacrifice" by Evanesscence, and chose to write this little thingy. You're more than welcome to throw your own songs at us and see what we manage to write with them if you wish :)

“You’re insane!”
“Woah, dude, chill! We’re all a little insane sometimes, and that was just a little prank. No need to get your knickers in a bunch!”

Drip. Drip. Drop. Eyes fluttered open, soft whispers sliding over my mind. Its dark, I can’t see, but she’s still talking.
“It’s true, we’re all a little...insane...”
Her voice crawls and creeps and chills. Chains rattle, and she laughs at me.
“But it’s so clear, now that I am...unchained...”
I close my eyes. Not real, not real! Fear is only in our minds. Taking over all the time. Fear is only in my mind! But it’s taking over all the time!
A hand on my chin, violently pushing, I gasp and my eyes open, she’s laughing at me.
“You poor, sweet, innocent thing, dry your eyes and testify!”
Testify? Testify what? I jerk my chin away. Drip. Drip. Drop. My tears, how do I stop my tears? She’s still laughing. She lives to break me. No! She’s a lie, she’s not real! She’s not real!
“Don’t deny...sweet...sacrifice...” she purrs, lips dripping lies and fear and hate.

“Hey, are you alright?”
“Hmm? Oh, yeah! I’m fine!”
“One day....I’m gonna forget your name....” Shut up. Shut up! “And one...sweet day....you’re gonna drown in my lost pain!”
“No!”
“Amaya?”

I run, I hide. She’s whispering again, twisting chains and tugging ropes.
“Fear is only in my mind!” “Taking over all the time...” “Fear is only in my mind!” “But I’m taking over all the time!”
She cackles, gleeful, proud and cruel. Make her stop! Make her silent!
“You poor, sweet, innocent thing. You love to hate me, don’t you honey?” I’m her sacrifice....

Drip. Drip. Drop. I can’t see the water, but I hear it. I can almost feel it, taste it. I dream in the darkness. You sleep to die. Erase the silence. Erase your life.
“Do you wonder, why you hate?” Our burning ashes, blacken the day. “Are you still too weak to survive your mistakes?” A world of nothingness, blow me away.
“Amaya?”
“You poor, sweet, innocent thing...”
"Amaya!"
