Pieces of Me

Prologue: Shattered

I was normal once. I'm sure of it. Now, now I don't know. I'm something with out a name, something undefined that lurks in the shadows of your mind with the other unnamed things. We're lost, these things and me. Lost somewhere in between what we define as normal and reality, lost between humanity and the things that consist of nightmares. I always knew there was a line. I could feel it, just a faint sliver of one that divided the supernatural from the natural. I just never knew how easily it could be crossed. But it was always there, and now it taunts me, something forgotten only to be remembered at the worst time. I tried so desperately hard to cling to the life I once had, but perhaps that was my downfall. Regardless, I'm here now, something un-normal wondering how to get back, how to cross that line once more. Just once more. That's all I want. That's all I need. But will it ever happen? That I do not know. I'm left here, abandoned like the rest. We're shattered, left alone and forgotten on someone's shelf, waiting for someone to come along and put us back together. But will anyone ever find me? Am I worth saving? I'm not sure but I hope. Oh God, how I hope.
