Welcome to Hell
She stares at me from the other side.
Her crystal eyes look me up and down,
her judgement made clear by the smirk on her lips.
She comes closer, reaching out for my hand
taking me to where I truly belong.
Her silence is mesmerizing and I follow
her to white jackets constricting my movements
and needles controlling my thoughts.
My eyes follow her graceful movements
as she glides across the room,
almost as if she isn't walking at all
but skating across the slick surface of ice.
More girls exactly like her join in
and dance around me,
swirling and twirling
they make my head spin out of control.
She comes closer and whispers in my ear,
"You knew it was coming,
you knew they'd find out eventually."
The room around me dissolves
leaving white walls and my hysterical
cries in it's wake.
She looks me in the eyes,nods,
and slowly disappears.
I stand to chase after her
but I cannot move.
Nurses and doctors surround
the chair to which I am bound.
Their eyes are empty, black chasms
and their fingers end in inch-long talons.
They hiss and their forked tongues
peek out from behind pointed teeth and
evil grins. Their hands are ice cold.
I awake in a bed that is not my own
with chains wrapped tightly around
my arms and legs.
The room is too hot,
the girl in the other bed
is screaming in her sleep.
The nurse cracks the door
and screeches at her for quiet.
Her eyes turn to me, staring
straight into my soul.
The room becomes blurry
and my limbs go numb.
Before I lose consciousness
I hear her say,
"Welcome, to hell,
we missed you."
Her crystal eyes look me up and down,
her judgement made clear by the smirk on her lips.
