Freedom From Monstrosity
I'm running from a monstrosity in a familuar place, I check behind me but see nothing, I'm shivering but yet I'm not cold... Waves of fear crash over my expressions, I know something is here, an unseen shadow and I'm the target. I run faster and feel no progress is made, as if I'm running in slow motion and whatever is after me is in full speed...(a race already won) revealed from the shadows a shapeless form, the beast is everywhere I look, I make yet another attempt for freedom in this seeming endless maze of horror, only to be stopped in my tracks again. No matter which way I run the monstrosity effortlessly blocks my escape and can perdict my every move...Something is so familuar about this thing that stands in my way, I scream and hear the echo of my own voice and mocking reply of my helpless cry, I fall to my knees and the monster is on it's knees before me, all I can do is stare at the beast and recieve the same blank stare in return...Without warning the monstrosity's arms are restrained against it's body, and I'm not sure if it's from fear but I also can't move... This has to be a dream, It just has to ....Almost simultaneously a room full of imaginary mirrors in a padded cell dawns on my mind in realization, I am the monstrosity I so helplessly ran away from. I cannot out run myself, I cannot escape then insanity that is my own. I can't get away from the psycho called ME. The silence stops with my screaming in a corner while rocking back and forth... The "normal" come to seize my delusional ranting to quiet the truths of my unstable mind... It's no longer people that surround me, but are blurry shapes and figures, that are slowly disapperaring.. I'm falling into a daze, confused and disoriented, this is where I lose all reality, where the illusions of my psychotic mind state takes over me... Now I"m in a familuar place, running from a familuar monstrosity...
