" Where am I?" I wondered out loud, as I silently trailed through the body of sand that lay deep beneath my feet. How long has it been exactly? When you don't exist among the living, I suppose those tiny things didn't really matter. Thinking like that must be an insult on the living, but I couldn't find myself enough to care. I laughed without humor as I kept on going through the sluggish sand, hoping that it eventually lead somewhere, anywhere was fine was me. The emptiness of this place was devastating, it wanted to rip me right open. It seems that I could almost see the rest of the world through its polished surface, so close yet so faraway. One thing was for sure, I was died. There was no other way back and I knew that from the beginning. Sand, I was drowning in sand, but why am I not frightned by the very fact at all? The next time I wake up, where will I be? Surely I will be punished for the many different sins I comitted when I was alive. Too late now, nothing can fix the mess I was in, I just wish that I could start all over again, away from her... Was that possible? She controlled my life, I was a mere puppet in her hands, nothing more. I was more than worthless, if I hope hard enough, will I be able to forget the nightmare that once was my life? I couldn't breath anymore, the sand was springing up to my throat, waiting to devour me whole. Life for me, has ended, but soon it will be the beginning again.
