Walking in the Dark || cth fanfic

Why am I here?
Why am I alive?
I pinch myself hoping to wake from the cold darkness, only to find myself still awaiting freedom. Freedom that does not exist in the darkness.
I'm shaking. Screaming. My arms around my head, covering my ears. I can't seem to grasp what's happening. I fall, feint and weak, to the ground. Unable to function properly.
I weakly put my arms out in front of me, hoping to find something to clutch. the shuffling of the leaves around me make me shake, only convincing me further that I am far from sane.
