The bitter-sweet escape.

I forget who or what I’m running from.

I’m just running.

My body accelerates against the cool breeze.

My legs ache. Throbbing, pumping blood.

It’s cold, but my body radiates infernal heat.

That liquid sliding down my skin, from my head all the way down to legs.

What is it? Sweat? Maybe it’s raining. I can’t tell.

Oh yes, I remember now.

I’m running from “them”. All of them.

They did this to me.

They disgust me.

With their primitive, puny little minds, snickering comments and destructive… well, everything.

They tried to kill me from the inside! Those fucking bastards.

But I didn’t let them. I took matters into my own hands.

And now, this is my revenge.

I’m escaping from their treacherous little trap.

The joke’s on them now.

There’s a dim light ahead of me. So small. So far.

I look down, no, not sweat, not water. Red. Blood. I’m drenched in it.

There must be raw, ripped skin somewhere. My flesh or theirs?

They planned this all along. They were all in on it. I should’ve known better.

They never really did like me.

I can still hear their evil laughters. Feel their hateful words rotting the blood in my veins and turning it into toxic tar.

But I’m free now. I think?

So what’s left now?

I can’t stop. I can’t look back.

My nostrils aren’t burning with every breath I take now. Why?

It’s the pain… it’s gone.

I look down again…

I’m no longer running.

My torso and legs… they’re gone.

A needle-like pain invades my pupils.

WHAT IS THAT?

My eyes… they hurt! I look away and shut my lids. Pink.

Did I arrive to my destination?

That feels so fucking good.

Warmth… delicious, sexy warmth.

I open my eyes… squinting.

It’s so bright.

It wants me. It summons me.

Not with words. With music. A silently-loud, sweet symphony.

I can’t… help myself.

This is where I wanted it to be.

The movie is playing.

Ahhh, yes, this where I’m supposed to be.

My birth, in between and the end. The shotgun that smiled at me as I pulled the trigger. She was saying; “hasta la vista, fucker!”

Fucking *****. But she was a good girl. She did what I told her to do.

So here I am.

I want to scream enough to make the Big Bang reverse itself. But all I can say now, with a tear in my eye and a smile on my face is;

Goodbye. Enjoy your virus-infested world.
