No amount of bad dreams and nightmares can prepare you for the reality of living through one.
Do you know what's worse - when your entire life is a nightmare. You never seem to wake up. You never see the light, just an endless void of darkness. That's where I am right now - in an endless void. Everything looks worse by the second.
Even as abstract as hope is, it is non-existent. No form of escape is available. Even insanity eludes me. That is what my hell looks like.
I lie on the floor with my eyes wide open. Something about me feels different.
I don't know how long I've been out, but if anything, the pain I feel is much worse. It feels like something is constantly stabbing at me.
I need water. Any kind of fluid. If only I could call out to anyone to help me.
I blink in reaction to the blinding white light in the room. This is worse than torture - the inability to help myself.
