Winging it: part one
No title yet, not sure where this story is going yet. Just playing with an idea and seeing where it leads. (unedited at this point as I am still playing about, so typos and things like that are still in play.)
Thump thump, thump thump, thump thump, slow and steady, feel the rhythm. Thump thump, thump thump. concentrate on the sound it proves you are alive. You have a chance, you can still do something, thump thump, thump thump. Alive, you are still alive. Alive? Why is that in my head? Of course I'm alive, why wouldn't I be?
Thump thump, thump thump. What is that sound? Thump thump, thump. It's gone. Where did it go? Why is it so important, why am I panicking? Calm down, relax and think, come on, think!
Thump thump thump thump thump thump, thump thump, thump thump. Ah, it is back. Why is it so dark? Darkness, thumping sound, where am I? My head feels funny but I don't know why, can seem to clear my... what was I thinking? Thump, thump, thump thump. Okay, this is important, I get it. Why, I don't know but that sound is important. It means something. Listening to the sound, is painful, it is so loud, why do I have to listen to it again? Where am I?
Something is touching me, I can feel something touching me, it's, it's, oh my god, what is it? What is touching me, get off my arm! get away from me? Why can't I move my arm? Shit, get away from me! oh god, it's sliding to my leg. It is grasping my foot. Grasping? Ah, it's a hand, someone is touching me. Nails, long nails, it's a woman. Why doesn't she talk to me?
Where am I?
She isn't touching me anymore but I can hear here moving around. Why didn't she answer me? Wait. Don't go, tell me what is going on!
Thump, thump, thump thump. Am I in a hospital? Did something happen to me? Why didn't she hear me. Am I mute? Am I blind? I still can't see anything. But I can hear, I can hear sounds, I can figure things out if I listen, listen to the sounds. That is why it is important to listen.
