I dance along the corridor,
The pathway, between worlds.
Until one day I see him –
My body is no more.
We don't want you anymore. You've caused us too much pain.
The words rip at me. They tear out my heart, fling it across the wall, for all the world to see.
Their like knifes digging into my skin, my flesh.
I know that now I've heard them, that my worst fears have come true, I'll never be the same again.
I feel as if my whole life is meaningless, that nothing matters without them. My soul is beared to the world as I curl, gasping, into a small ball at the edge of my seat.
My hands clutch my knees, my arms rap around my legs.
I cling to them like there all I've got. That now my family have turned against me, all I have left is my small and frail body.
My body is shaking. Ripping and shuddering beneath me. Angry sobs explode from my chest and I feel as if life will never be the same again.
They'd left me. Left me with no one. No one to love, no one to care for.
I start to rock backwards and forwards, oblivious to the eyes that are penetrating through me.
I let my head rest on my chest and cry until my eyes are rubbed red and raw.
My fingers curl around my hair. Pulling it, tugging it. The red locks pull free from my head and fall limp in my hands.
I sit here, pulling away at myself, trying to change the dreadful thing I have become.
Until someone starts calling out to me.
Their pale hands gently wrap around my arms, pulling them off my legs.
They lift me up and carry me outside.
I don't know where im going, and frankly I don't care.
All I know is that someone cares about me enough to pull me from this darkness that is quickly consuming me.
