I recognize this place from my past.  I know that I've been here before, yet I'm not sure where I am.  I am alone.  So very alone...  It appears that not another soul has been here.  Ever.  I'm lost, I'm alone, and I'm cold.  Heat seems to be leaving my body with every heartbeat.  My heart is beating rapidly.  The air is hard to breathe because even it is frozen.  Every time I exhale, my breath turns to ice.  It falls to the ground and shatters like glass, rigid shards scattering across the ground.  Although all is frozen, there is an eerie dampness all around me.  Everything that is going on makes no sense to me.  The moisture seems to be inside of me, dripping.  Dripping.  Dripping from my bones.  Dripping like the blood from a man's broken heart.  I am completely lost in this place.  This place that feels worse then hell could ever be.  Every feeling I have is a hypocrisy, an oxymoron of itself.  I am ready to leave, ready to escape this strange place.  I don’t know my way out although I've been here many times.  I give a scream, a yell, a cry for help...  Nobody's going to come.  Nobody ever well.  Every door is locked.  Each door is made of steel and filled with concrete.  I am trapped, a prisoner of my own creation.  My own thoughts and dreams have locked me in.  I may never leave this place.  I may never leave my mind.

If someboy laughs at me, does that make me funny or just plain stupid?

You have considerable talent!
I was kept at the edge of my seat throughout!
The ending is superb!


PS:

Hope this was totally fiction.
Otherwise there is cause for deep concern.

What a nightmare, what a way to express it!

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
